The accident took place on the Highway 427 southbound ramp to Dundas Street West on Monday night, said Toronto police. The law enforcers arrived at the scene around 11:30 pm after the crash.
The Ontario Provincial Police said all four people in the vehicle have been identified, but refused to disclose their names to the Canadian media. CBC News reported that the victims were Bangladeshi students living in Toronto on study permits.
The OPP said a woman and man, both 20, and a 17-year-old boy died in the accident. The injured driver, a 21-year-old man, remains in critical condition. Police said they have notified the families of the victims.
