A 20-year-old driver from Mġarr was grievously injured in a collision in a poorly lit section of the Coast Road near the former White Rocks complex at about 2.30am yesterday.

The police said a Ford Transit, driven by a 22-year-old man from Birżebbuġa, ended up facing the wrong way in the collision with a Peugeot 405.

The van, whose driver was also taken to hospital, was heading towards Pembroke and the Peugeot was going in the opposite direction.
