Emergency crews cut through the side of a car to rescue an elderly woman trapped due to a T-bone collision in Corio on Tuesday afternoon.
The crash occurred on Bacchus Marsh Road before 2.30pm, injuring two people.
CFA and SES crews used the ‘Jaws of Life’ to remove the doors of the car, before pushing the pillar away from the trapped passenger with a hydraulic ram.
The crews helped paramedics free the woman, with the whole process taking about 20 minutes.
South Barwon SES spokesman Scott Clark urged motorist to be careful.
“With the long weekend coming to an end, drivers need to be vigilant, and pay attention when travelling on our roads,” he said.
“A moment’s inattention can have long-lasting and drastic consequences”
Paramedics took a man and a woman, both in their seventies, to Geelong hospital with hip injuries.
Earlier in the day rescue crews freed a mother and son following another two-car crash in Grovedale.
