A collision between a car and a truck left three people injured on Champagne Road near Voor Street in Wellington this morning.
The car was lying on its roof on the bank of a ravine with the truck on top of the car. The two occupants of the car, allegedly a learner driver and a driving instructor, were still trapped inside the vehicle.
The truck and car were stabilized with a crane and winches while rescue workers used hydraulic rescue equipment to extricate the patients from the car.
The patients were both in a moderate condition when they were extricated from the vehicle and were taken by ambulances to a nearby hospital. The driver of the truck sustained minor injuries.
The cause of the collision is being investigated by the police.
