The Sunshine Coast-based LifeFlight helicopter crew has flown a woman to hospital after she was seriously injured in a single-vehicle crash, in the South Burnett region.
It’s believed the woman, who is aged in her 50s, was driving with her high-school aged daughter when their car reportedly veered off the road, crashing down a road embankment.
The rescue chopper was called into action shortly before 5.30pm this afternoon. (Weds 22nd March)
