The Forensic Crash Unit is investigating a fatal single vehicle traffic crash at Esk overnight, April 10.
Initial investigations indicate that around 1:30am, a Toyota Camry sedan was travelling along the Brisbane Valley Highway near Falls Road when it left the roadway and struck a tree.
Emergency services were called a short time later, however the driver and single occupant of the vehicle, a 36-year-old Coverty woman, was declared deceased.
The Forensic Crash Unit is investigating the circumstances of the crash and are appealing to anyone who may have relevant information or CCTV/dashcam vision to come forward.
The Queensland Police Service is committed to reducing the number of lives lost on our roads.
Data shows that serious crashes can be significantly reduced when drivers recognise and avoid the 'Fatal Five' behaviours: speeding, drink and drug driving, not wearing seatbelts, fatigue and distraction.
