A CAR veered off the road and crashed into an embankment at Redhead on Wednesday morning, in an incident which hospitalised two people.
Emergency services were called to the scene on Redhead Road near the intersection of Oakdale Road at 8.42am on February 7 to reports of a two-car crash in the wet.
On arrival at the site, first responders found one of the vehicles involved in the crash had careened off the road and into a nearby embankment.
Multiple ambulances were called to the scene and two patients, both understood to be in their 40s, were assessed for injuries before being taken to John Hunter Hospital. A woman reportedly suffered a pelvic injury in the crash, while a man injured his shoulder.
NSW Fire and Rescue units from Charlestown, Belmont and Lambton were called in, including 14 fire fighters.
The specialty technical unit from Lambton assessed the scene and planned for extraction of the vehicle, while police put road closures in place. The cars were expected to be towed from the scene.
Police will now investigate the circumstances leading up to the crash.
