VANCOUVER (NEWS1130) – A fatal crash in Langley and a serious accident in Surrey Sunday morning have police once again urging drivers to watch their speed on congested summer roads.

The driver of a car died after hitting an SUV on the Langley Bypass at Fraser Highway west of 200th St shortly before 7 am.

The driver of the SUV was taken to hospital and released.

Langley RCMP Staff Sgt. Alex Borden says alcohol was likely not a factor but didn’t rule out speed.

“What we’re doing obviously is determining what was the factor in the accident, how these two vehicles impacted each other. As for speed, again we’re still doing our investigation.”

He asked any witnesses to come forward.

Another accident around the same time in Surrey seriously injured a motorcycle driver when he collided with a car on King George Blvd. between 104th and 108th Avenues.

Surrey RCMP Staff Sgt. Warren Tyson implored drivers to slow down.

“There is a lot of traffic on the roads during the summer month, we just ask that drivers be careful, be aware of each other and use some common sense.”

Both roads were closed for several hours.

Earlier this week Abbotsford police tweeted a number of excuses drivers used when stopped for speeding in an effort to draw attention to the issue.
