About 3pm, a flatbed truck carrying containers and a grey Mini hatchback collided on State Highway 2, near the intersection with Avery Road. The driver of the car died at the scene.
Senior Sergeant Carey Williamson said Police needed to hear from any road users who witnessed the crash, or the manner of driving or either vehicle.
“The truck was carrying large white containers filled with oil, while the Mini in itself is distinctive. If you observed either vehicle before the collision, or the crash itself, please contact us as soon as possible.”
