No serious injuries have been reported at this stage.
A witness told Pulse it was “an almost identical situation as last month’s double fatality at exactly the same spot and situation”.
The same stretch of highway was the scene of a fatal crash on June 23 when two people died after a collision between a Holden Barina hatchback and a Mitsubishi Triton utility near Cassidys Road.
Both occupants of the Barina were killed at the scene.
