Charges have been laid over a fatal crash on the Bruce Highway, north of Mackay.
Police will allege a white Toyota Landcruiser ute crossed onto the opposite side of the road near Bloomsbury around 3pm on August 1, and collided with a white Isuzu truck and a white Mazda CX5 travelling behind the truck.
The driver of the Mazda, a 72-year-old man from Victoria, and the driver of the Landcruiser, a 21-year-old Kelso man, were airlifted to the Townsville Hospital with serious injuries.
The 72-year-old man passed away as a result of his injuries in August 14.
The passenger of the Landcruiser, the driver of the Isuzu, a 61-year-old Sarina man, and the passenger of the Cx5 all suffered minor injuries and were transported to Mackay Base Hospital.
A 21-year-old Kelso man has since been charged with careless driving causing death and is due to appear before Mackay Magistrates Court on November 25.
