A 57-year-old man has been taken to hospital with a serious head injury after a two-vehicle crash in just north of Sydney last night.
About 11:00pm (Friday 8 February 2019), emergency services were called to the M1, just north of the Hawkesbury River Bridge, after reports of a two-vehicle crash.
Police have been told a Toyota Camry station wagon – carrying two males, aged 52 and 57 – lost control and left the road before colliding with a rock face, causing severe damage to their vehicle.
The Camry has then continued back onto the M1 where it has crashed into a bus before coming to a stop further down the road.
The 52-year-old Camry driver was treated at the scene by NSW Ambulance for minor injuries and was taken to Gosford Hospital as a precaution.
The 57-year-old passenger was also treated at the scene before being taken to Royal North Shore Hospital for treatment to a serious head injury, where he remains in a serious but stable condition.
No one was injured from the bus.
Officers from the Crash Investigation Unit are investigating the circumstances surrounding the crash.
Inquiries continue.
Anyone with information about this incident is urged to contact Crime Stoppers: 1800 333 000 or https://nsw.crimestoppers.com.au. Information is treated in strict confidence.
