I should have added that this means the incident occurred on the Canadian side of the border, since that’s where the Customs processing of travellers into Canada takes place. There is no pre-clearance station in the US for land crossings.
You are right about waiting a couple of days. I called a friend at Canada Customs and asked a few questions and he answered the ones he could. He confirmed that the crash occurred in Niagara Falls on the US side, not in Niagara Falls on the Canadian side. He added that the car was NOT at the Customs clearance booths prior to when the crash happened and suggested I watch this news video - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TwfBHShyJE8
The news article I linked in a previous post had it completely wrong. In the new video, the driver can be seen speeding down the road (Niagara Street) that runs perpendicular to the US Customs booths at the Rainbow Bridge. I know that road and it doesn’t look as though he was trying to cross the bridge at all.
I’m distressed that little Nala has not turned up and I’m just killing time to distract me from worrying about and missing her. It’s not really working and I’m becoming annoyed at the wildly conflicting stories. Your advice is very good, UVNV.
Happy Thanksgiving to all and I hope you enjoy the time with your families.
So they were trying to get into Canada from the US?
