Man charged over fatal three-car crash

A man has been charged over a three-car collision on the Bellarine on Sunday that killed a Queenscliff woman and left three people hospitalised.

Emergency services were called to the corner of Swan Bay and Queenscliff roads about 1.20pm on Sunday, March 20 after reports of a three-car crash.

Police believe a car was travelling south on Queenscliff Road when it was hit by an eastbound car on Swan Bay Road.

A third car, travelling west on Swan Bay Road was then hit and rolled onto its roof.

A 35-year-old Queenscliff woman, who was the driver of the southbound vehicle, died at the scene.

Three occupants of the other two cars were taken to hospital with minor injuries.

The driver of the eastbound car, a 64-year-old Geelong man, was interviewed by Major Collision Unit detectives and charged with dangerous driving causing death.

He was bailed to appear at the Geelong Magistrates Court today.

Anyone who witnessed the collision, has dash cam footage or further information is urged to call Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000 or submit a confidential report at crimestoppersvic.com.au.
