No one was injured in the collision. The single occupant was arrested for impaired driving and failed the breath test.

The 40 year old male form Tantallon will be charged with impaired driving offences and attend court in Halifax at a later date.

Traffic on Massachusetts Avenue was reduced to one lane temporarily and is now re-opened.
