An SUV not equipped with winter tires may have caused an accident in Glenmore yesterday morning.
It happened at 11:30am in the 100 block of Valley Road North.
Police say a Ford Escape, driven by an 18-year-old Kelowna woman, slid across the centre line and hit an oncoming BMW X3.
The driver of the BMW, a 51-year-old West Kelowna woman, and her passenger were taken to hospital for non-life threatening injuries.
The driver of the Ford Escape had to be extracted from her vehicle before also being sent to hospital for minor injuries.
Police say a combination of oil, slush, and fresh snow made the road very slippery and the tread of the tires on the Ford Escape were not sufficient for winter driving.
