The driver of a Toyota Tazz appeared to have lost control of his vehicle as he was travelling in an easterly direction on the M13 between St Johns and Richmond road on Saturday afternoon.
His vehicle crossed over the center median and collided with two other vehicles travelling west bound.
The driver, who is believed to have been in his late 20’s, was found trapped in the wreckage of his vehicle which had come to rest against the roadside embankment. Sadly he had suffered fatal injuries and there was no more that could be done to save his life.
A woman who was travelling alone in her vehicle when the Tazz crashed into it, was found trapped in the driver’s seat of her vehicle. She had suffered a broken arm as a result of the impact. She was treated and transported to Hillcrest Private hospital under Advanced Life Support care.
Fortunately the occupants of the third vehicle suffered no injuries and they left the scene privately.
Investigations are underway as to what caused the fatal crash.
