The LifeFlight Sunshine Coast-based aeromedical team yesterday airlifted a man to hospital after the car he was driving collided with a truck.
The rescue chopper was tasked to the D’Aguilar highway in the Somerset region at 4:55pm.
The crew landed the aircraft on the road near the incident which had been closed off by Queensland Police Service (QPS) officers.
Queensland Ambulance Service (QAS) paramedics worked with the LifeFlight critical care doctor and QAS flight paramedic to treat the patient, aged in his 20s, for head, chest and pelvis injuries.
He was airlifted to Sunshine Coast University Hospital in a stable condition.
