After the crash, Yadav exited his vehicle and asked the young woman in the vehicle behind him if she was okay. He then went to check on the occupants of the pickup truck in front of him. When he turned back, the car and driver who hit his car were gone.

Yadav describes the person who hit his Taurus as a young woman in her 20s, driving alone. He says the woman’s car, which was possibly a hatchback, had major front-end damage from the collision.

If you saw the collision or the driver who caused it, call Kamloops RCMP at (250) 828-3000.
