A woman in her 30s was taken to Hervey Bay Hospital in a stable condition with a head injury and spinal precautions, and a man in his 30s was also taken to hospital but did not appear to be injured.

Both people were in the same vehicle at the time of the crash, a QAS spokeswoman said.

Maryborough police confirmed one of the vehicles had left the scene before officers arrived, and are appealing for witnesses who may have seen the crash, or have dashcam footage to come forward.

A QFES spokesman said the woman was “encapsulated” in the vehicle as a result of the crash, but not trapped.

Police are investigating.
