AN elderly female driver was taken to hospital with suspected serious injuries after her vehicle crashed into a house in Boundary Road, Dromana last Tuesday (3 October).
CFA, police, SES volunteers and two ambulances attended the accident, which happened about 2.30pm.
Witnesses said the roads were wet and slippery, and the driver have been travelling along Manna Street before she may have clipped a kerb and lost control of the vehicle, veering across Boundary Road and crashing through a property’s front fence and into the veranda.
The driver, believed to be aged in her 80s, was trapped for a short time before being freed by emergency services. Anyone who witnessed the crash or with dashcam vision is urged to call Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.
