Tributes have been laid in memory of a Pascoe Vale man who lost his life in a two-car collision last week.

It was a horror time on the roads in Melbourne’s northwest after two collisions within hours of each other left one person dead and one in a critical condition on February 2.

Police and ambulance were called to the corner of Reynolds Pde and Moascar St after two vehicles collided about 9am.

The incident left a 78-year-old Pascoe Vale man needing hospital treatment as he battles life-threatening injuries from the crash. He passed away from those injuries late that day.
