A 22-year-old man from Quebec has been charged with dangerous driving in a car crash in Scarborough that left a young girl with life-threatening injuries.

Toronto police responded to calls for a personal injury collision at Pharmacy Avenue at Donside Drive, near Victoria Park Ave., around 3:40 p.m. on Tuesday.

It is alleged that the male driver of a white Infinity Q50 was travelling at excessive speed on Pharmacy Ave.

As he approached the intersection at Donside Drive, a van going south on Pharmacy Ave. made a left turn onto Donside.

To avoid a collision, the driver of the Infinity swerved left and lost control of his car. He crossed over into the southbound lane and struck a blue Toyota Yaris travelling south in the turning lane.

As a result, the Toyota was pushed into a red Honda Fit directly behind it.

The driver and the three passengers in the Toyota were injured and had to be taken to hospital.

One of the passengers, a 15-year-old girl, sustained life-threatening injuries.

The driver and two other passengers suffered minor injuries.

The driver of the Honda Fit was not injured, police say.

The driver of the Infinity Q50 suffered from minor injuries and was taken to hospital.

He was later released and charged.
