UPDATE 12.00pm

A middle-aged woman has been taken to Gympie hospital in a stable condition after reportedly rolling her white Toyota Prado across both lanes of the Bruce Highway at Curra.

The incident occurred at around 9:47am when the woman allegedly rolled her vehicle across the highway from the southbound lane, coming to rest in a ditch on the northbound side near the Harvey Siding Rd intersection.

The vehicle came to rest out the front of a private property off the highway.

The woman was the sole occupant of the car.

Eyewitness accounts reported to officers at the scene seemed to confirm the circumstances of the incident.

A Queensland Police Service officer on the scene said it was lucky the incident had only involved one vehicle.

A Queensland Fire Service officer agreed, saying the incident could have been much worse based on the circumstances.

More information as it comes to hand.
