A man in his 80s has died in a head-on collision on a notorious section of the Princes Highway on the NSW South Coast.
Police say two vehicles collided near the Fishermans Paradise Road, Lake Conjola, in area where a much-needed road upgrade was promised five years ago after a crash that left Home and Away actress Jessica Falkholt dead.
The elderly man was trapped in the wreckage of his car and died later in hospital.
The 23-year-old female driver of the second vehicle was airlifted to hospital in a serious condition.
The accident site is just south of the Bendalong turn off where five people died in a head-on collision on Boxing Day 2017.
That fiery crash resulted in the death of Home and Away actress Jessica Falkholt, along with her sister and both parents, as well as the 50-year-old driver of the other car.
