New footage has been released showing three men police wish to speak to following a fiery crash that left a man in critical condition.
Emergency services were called to Davies Rd in Padstow, Sydney, following reports of a two-vehicle crash about 10.40pm on Sunday.
On arrival, police found a white Audi on fire after a collision with a silver Nissan Pulsar.
“It looks like the silver Pulsar is turning right, and possibly due to the speed of the white Audi, a collision has occurred in the southbound direction,” Detective Inspector Jason Hogan said, according to 7NEWS.
The Audi had reportedly been taken for a test drive and never returned.
Police were told three occupants of the Audi, believed to be men in their 20s, fled the scene before officers arrived.
The 39-year-old Nissan driver was treated by paramedics on the scene and was taken to St George Hospital in a critical condition.
Mr Hogan emphasised all drivers have a “duty” to stop if someone is seriously injured in a crash, and urged the men to come forward.
“To leave the scene of any crash is not a good thing, and especially when someone is seriously injured,” he said.
“There’s a duty to all drivers to stop and render assistance as well as provide some details of who they are.
“Drivers need to be accountable for their actions, they need to slow down and they need to take the appropriate rest and drive within the conditions.
“Driving is a privilege, not a right, so drivers should be mindful of other road users.”
A crime scene was established and the Crash Investigation Unit has launched an investigation.
Anyone with information has been urged to come forward to police.
