Three Injured in Highway Pileup

Share This Post

Road-users involved in a collision on the Mitchell Highway recently were rushed to Orange Hospital but thankfully there were no serious injuries or fatalities.

The collision involved a car and 3 trucks around 8am, resulting in the closure of the highway in both directions.

It is believed that fog and wet roads had a role to play in the crash.

The car was turning right out of a driveway to head towards Orange when a flatbed truck loaded with cargo collided into the back of it.

The truck was then clipped by a navy Suzuki Vitara and a third flatbed truck carrying logs travelling in the opposite direction. The car was occupied by an elderly couple believed to be in their seventies.
