Critical condition after car lost control and struck a tree in Oakland Township

Critical condition after car lost control and struck a tree in Oakland Township describes a serious injury crash in Oakland Township, Michigan. Responders were called at around 5 p.m. on June 20 to East Gunn Road east of Cook Court for a reported injury crash. A 77-year-old Northville woman was driving a 2016 Volvo XC70 eastbound when she approached a curve and attempted to pass other vehicles at a high rate of speed, according to preliminary investigation. Authorities say she swerved to avoid a bicyclist traveling westbound, then lost control, left the roadway, and struck a tree. The driver was trapped and had to be extricated by emergency responders, then was transported to Henry Ford Rochester Hospital, where she remains in critical condition. A 12-year-old female passenger from Bruce Township was not injured, and investigators said they do not believe alcohol or drugs were factors.
