A 97-year-old woman is one of five people from the same family who were killed when their car collided head-on with a truck on a highway north of Maryborough in eastern Queensland.
The five relatives were in a four-wheel drive when it crashed head-on into a semi-trailer at around 3.30pm (AEST) on Sunday near Nulla Flat Creek on the Bruce Highway.
Police have confirmed a 65-year-old man and 62-year-old woman from Forrest Lake, along with a 74-year-old man and two women, aged 62 and 97, from Hervey Bay were killed in the crash.
All five were part of the same extended family, a police spokesman told AAP.
Next of kin have been notified.
The truck driver survived the crash with injuries which are not life-threatening, police say.
The Forensic Crash Unit is investigating the collision.
The highway, which runs along Queensland's coast from Brisbane to Cairns, was closed for several hours after the crash.
