A motorcyclist collided with a vehicle on Highway 19A on Wednesday (June 7), leading to serious but non-life-threatening injuries.

The motorcyclist was travelling northbound near Lytton Street in Union Bay, when it appears they collided with a vehicle exiting a driveway, the Record learned from RCMP media relations officer Cst. Monika Terragni.

Investigators do not believe impairment was a factor. The driver of the vehicle was not injured, and the motorcyclist was transported to hospital.

Comox Valley RCMP responded to the crash scene at around 12:25 p.m. and closed the highway for several hours, re-opening it fully to traffic around 4:30 p.m.
