Ottawa Accident Lawyer David Hollingsworth..Regrettably, I am reporting that a young girl remains at CHEO tonight with very serious, life threatening personal injury as a result of an Ottawa accident earlier this morning. My thoughts are with her family and friends at this very difficult time. Ottawa police have pleaded to the Ottawa commmunity for help in trying to figure out what happenned to this young girl. A 16 year old girl has been taken to hospital with life-threatening personal injuries after an accident at March Road near Highway 417 Sunday morning. Police said the 17-year-old was a passenger in a vehicle, whose driver lost control and hit a tree in the area of March and Thomas Argue roads at about 1:25 a.m. Thankfully, 3 other passengers, did not suffer personal injury. The young girl was airlifted to CHEO where she remains in critical condition. My thoughts go out to her and I hope to soon report of her full recovery.
update:
OTTAWA — A 17-year-old male has been charged with careless driving and driving with a blood alcohol level above zero after a car crashed into tree Sunday morning, police said. A 17-year-old girl was taken to hospital with life-threatening injuries after an accident at March Road near Highway 417 around 1:25 a.m. She was airlifted to CHEO in critical condition.
I am relieved to report that this young girl’s condition has improved; although she still has a long way to go…Police said her condition has been downgraded from life-threatening to stable condition.
Police have charged the 17-year-old driver with careless driving under the Highway Traffic Act. The youth was also charged with driving with a blood alcohol level above zero. New legislation, which came into effect in July, requires young drivers to be alcohol-free when they get behind the wheel.

The Ottawa Citizen reported that 5 young Ottawa Irish Rugby Club players who were rushed to hospital yesterday — including a 15-year-old in critical condition — after their SUV rolled over on Ottawa’s Moodie Drive have been released from Ottawa hospital and are recovering at home. “They’re in good spirits,” said Tim Powers, an executive member of the Ottawa Irish Rugby Club. The accident happened shortly before 6 p.m. just north of Cambrian Drive. Five players were riding home to the Rockland area in a Chevrolet Suburban, driven by their coach, from a Saturday afternoon match at Twin Elm Park when the SUV rolled over. Police are still investigating the cause. An 18-year-old passenger sustained back injuries and a puncture wound to his stomach and was taken to hospital in serious condition. A 19-year-old and 15-year-old were both taken to hospital in stable condition. The 23-year-old male driver, who is a former Ottawa Irish player, and other passenger were treated on scene and released. The most seriously injured was another 15-year-old sitting on the front passenger side, which took the brunt of the impact. He sustained a critical head injury, a serious shoulder injury, and significant blood loss. He was transported to the Children’s Hospital of Eastern Ontario. He had about 48 stitches, Powers said, but still can’t wait to get back on the field.“He told the club president when he got home that he’ll be back out there by Tuesday,” Powers said. “I think the doctors might disagree with him on the time but it just shows that these boys are doing well.” The rugby season continues on until early November. Powers said it’s unsure whether all the players will return this season but they will make full recoveries.
