Rescue crews continue to clean up the carnage of a truck collision on a remote highway in South Australia that killed both drivers and a passenger.
The two semi-trailers collided head on just before 7am on Thursday 27km west of Yalata on the Eyre Highway in the state's west.
The driver of one road train, a 77-year-old man from Adelaide's north, died at the scene, along with a 25-year-old NSW man and a 45-year-old Victorian man in a second truck.
The Eyre Highway, which is the main road route connecting SA to Western Australia, was closed for most of Thursday while major crash investigators examined the scene but was reopened just after 8pm with a speed restriction in place.
Police have advised motorists further delays are expected throughout Friday, with possible closures of the highway as the remnants of the prime movers and their trailers are recovered from the scene.
The deaths are the 24th, 25th and 26th lives lost on South Australian roads this year.
