The collision happened shortly after 3 a.m. on a section of Ryan Road with no sidewalks and no overhead lighting.

The driver remained at the collision site and is co-operating with the police investigation, she added.
A witness was also present when the crash occurred and has been interviewed by police.
The road was closed for several hours as collision analysts examined the scene.
