At approximately 6:25 a.m., Okotoks RCMP responded to a motor vehicle collision in the southbound lanes of Highway 2, approximately two kilometres south of Dunbow Road.
Upon arrival, police say officers located a small sedan that had rear ended a semi-truck that was parked on the shoulder.
A 44-year-old male, a resident of Okotoks and driver of the vehicle, was transported to hospital. He was the only occupant in the vehicle.
The RCMP collision reconstructionist was called to the scene and the cause of the collision is still under investigation.
