One of the two people involved, a man in his twenties from Saint-Hubert, was taken to the hospital, where he was pronounced dead. The second victim, a woman in her forties from Candiac, died at the scene of the accident.
Currently, several hypotheses are being considered regarding the circumstances of this collision.
underlines Élizabeth Marquis-Guy.
A specialist police officer went to the scene to investigate this morning.
The highway was initially closed in both directions. Traffic then resumed eastbound, but a section remained closed westbound for much of the morning.
Emergency services left the scene around 11 a.m. Both directions are open to traffic again.
