At least three Quebecers dead in accidents during freezing rain and snow
One accident saw a car flip and catch fire, both occupants inside later died in hospital.
Quebec roads have seen several serious accidents during this weekend's dumping of freezing rain and snow—and at least three people have died in the collisions.
A woman lost control her vehicle on Highway 132 Saturday night near Montmagny, east of Quebec City, and hit a streetlamp. She was pronounced dead at the scene.
In Pointe-à-la-Croix, in Gaspésie, a violent crash left two gravely injured around 1 a.m. on Sunday. The car they were in flipped and caught fire.
The two women inside, aged 36 and 37 years old, were rushed to hospital where both later succumbed to their injuries.
