Car Plunges Into Lake

An unidentified motorist escaped serious injury after her car plunged into Okanagan Lake.

The single vehicle accident happened early Monday morning on Highway 97 where the car veered off the road just south of Peachland.

The vehicle smashed into some large rocks at the edge of the lake before flipping over and landing on its roof.

Luckily for the woman, another motorist witnessed the accident and managed to pull her free from the wreckage.

She was taken to hospital with minor injuries.

It's not clear why the car left the road.
