A 17-year-old Chilliiwack girl who was airlifted to hospital after a crash in Abbotsford on Friday is in stable condition.

The teen was a passenger in a Ford Mustang being driven by her father, and they were heading south on Sumas Way at about 4:30 p.m. They were making a left turn at the eastbound on-ramp to Highway 1, when the light turned yellow and they were struck on the passenger side by a northbound Chevy pickup.

The father, 48, was taken to hospital by ambulance, while the driver of the pickup, a 25-year-old man from Delta, was not seriously injured.

The crash tied up traffic for several hours as both the on- and off-ramps to Highway 1 were shut down, as was that portion of Sumas Way in both directions.
