Two people died yesterday in separate collisions on rural roads near the city.

Mounties say it appears both crashes were the result of drivers running stop signs.

Calgary paramedics and RCMP went to both crashes on Hwy. 9.

The first happened about 7 a.m. near Hwy. 566, killing the 44 year-old driver of a smaller vehicle in collision with a water truck. Cops say the truck ran a stop sign.

About four hours later, on Hwy. 9 at Hwy. 564, a 59-year-old woman was killed when she ran a stop sign and hit a cattle liner."
