Snowcat driver may be charged
The driver of the snowcat that crashed into a ravine in the Giant Mountains, injuring 11 passengers, may be charged with causing grievous bodily harm. He was found to be transporting 17 passengers in the vehicle although norms only allow eight. The police are now awaiting the outcome of a technical inspection of the vehicle. The driver claims that a technical error was behind the accident, saying that he suddenly lost control of the snowcat which swerved off the road and toppled over into a ravine. Three people sustained serious injuries and remain in intensive care.
