Police say a Toyota Tercel was driving northbound on the highway when it crossed into the southbound lanes, crashing into a Dodge Caravan head-on and sending the Caravan into another vehicle.

The drivers of the other two vehicles were taken to Hamilton General Hospital with minor injurie, but their cars were significantly damaged.
