US EditionWOLF: B.C. family ensures Reid Davidson's legacy lives on
- Reid Davidson, a 24-year-old Vancouver Island University graduate and soccer player, died in a car crash on July 19, 2023, on the Nanaimo Parkway in British Columbia.
- The crash happened when Reid’s car was hit by a minivan driven the wrong way by a man suspected of being impaired, who was later formally accused in 2024 of causing death by criminal negligence and other related offenses.
- In the wake of the tragedy, VIU honored Reid by retiring his jersey number 13, and to keep his memory alive, scholarships, awards, as well as annual soccer and golf tournaments have been created throughout the province.
- Mike Davidson, Reid’s father, said police had recommended impaired driving causing death charges, and although the accused died in custody before trial, the family remains committed to speaking out against impaired driving.
- Mike Davidson described not facing the accused in court as a "strange feeling," expressed fears about the legal process ending too soon, and emphasized continuing to honor Reid’s legacy despite the absence of closure.
