A 73-year-old woman has died in a collision involving a ute and a heavy-duty truck on the Cunningham Highway at Fassifern, south-west of Brisbane.
The woman was driving a white Toyota Hilux towing a boat when it collided with a red Kenworth prime mover shortly before 11.30am, police said.
Two passengers in the ute, an 11-year-old boy and a 22-year-old man, were taken to hospital in a stable condition. The truck driver was not physically injured.
Police said the Hilux had been travelling on Boonah Fassifern Road with the two passengers when it entered the Cunningham Highway intersection. The driver died at the scene.
The highway was closed in both directions while emergency services attended and investigations began. Police have appealed for anyone with information or vision of the crash to come forward.
