Two killed in crashes overnight

Two lives have been lost as a result of two separate traffic crashes overnight.

Police say that just after 9pm last night, a 25-year-old Upper Coomera man lost his life as a result of a three car crash at Logan Village. 

Investigations suggest a grey Volkswagon Touareg was travelling south along Waterford Tamborine Road when it clipped a black Suzuki Swift travelling in the opposite direction near Hotz Road. 

The Volkswagon Touareg has then collided head-on with a blue Mitsubishi Lancer, driven by the 25-year-old man who died at the scene.

The driver of the Volkswagon Touareg, a 24-year-old woman, was assessed for minor injuries at the scene along with the driver of the Suzuki Swift, a 51-year-old woman. 

In a separate incident before 11pm, a 22-year-old man lost his life after his vehicle crashed into a tree at Buderim. 

Initial investigations suggest a black BMW coupe was travelling east at speed along Maroochydore Road when it left the roadway and crashed into a tree. 

A 22-year-old Diddillibah man, who was the sole occupant of the coupe, died at the scene. 

Investigators of the two crashes are appealing for anyone who has dashcam footage to contact police.

The number of lives lost on Queensland roads this year has now exceeded the total number of lives lost in 2019.
