Two tradies killed in horror head-on

Two concreters have been killed on their way to work in North Queensland this morning.

The men were travelling along a section of highway south of Bundaberg, when their hatchback collided head-on with another vehicle around 6am (AEST).

Witnesses said the second car, driven by two Hong Kong nationals, had crossed onto the wrong side of the highway.


It's believed the two tourists, aged in their mid-20s had been overtaking vehicles despite double white lines on the road.

They were taken to Bundaberg Base Hospital for treatment.

Police are investigating.
