Three individuals lost their lives in separate traffic accidents in Quebec overnight. The first incident occurred around 12:30 a.m. when a vehicle veered off Route 132 East near Chemin Mistral in Saint-Michel-de-Bellechasse. The driver, a 35-year-old man who was alone in the vehicle, tragically lost control for unknown reasons and was pronounced dead at the scene. The road was temporarily closed but reopened by 4:45 a.m.
Later, at approximately 3:20 a.m., emergency services responded to a single-vehicle crash on Route 138 near Franquelin. The vehicle, carrying four people, veered out of control, leading to one fatality and leaving the other three occupants in critical condition. Two out of the three lanes in the accident area were shut down in the morning.
A third car accident was reported around 6 a.m. on Route 138 in Saint-Tite-des-Caps. The driver, reasons yet unclear, lost control as the car rolled multiple times while traveling eastbound. A man and a woman in their 30s were inside the vehicle, both sustaining severe injuries. Regrettably, the 37-year-old woman passed away at the hospital, while the man remains in critical condition.
