Share

A GoFundMe has been started for Kayla-Marie Gibson, the driver of the van that was involved in a two-vehicle collision that shut the Malahat down Thursday.

Gibson, 19, was taken to the hospital with serious injuries after her van collided with a fuel truck near Goldstream Provincial Park.

Her injuries include broken legs, hips, and pelvis, and shattered knees.

Gibson was put into a drug-induced coma, but is now awake. She went in for a second round of surgery on Saturday.

According to the GoFundMe, Gibson is one of the primary breadwinners for her family. Her grandfather passed away just two days prior to the accident.

The GoFundMe has raised $1,300 of its $5,000 goal at time of writing.
