A woman has died after her car left the M1 Pacific Motorway and hit a tree on the Central Coast on Sunday night.

Emergency crews were called to the motorway at Kangy Angy about 6.35pm, after a northbound Hyundai sedan left the road, drove onto the median strip and hit a tree.

An off-duty nurse and Tuggerah Lakes police officer provided first aid to the 22-year-old female driver - and sole occupant - until paramedics arrived.

The woman was airlifted to Royal North Shore Hospital in a critical condition.

Officers from Tuggerah Lakes Police District have been advised the woman died in hospital on Monday.

Inquiries have begun into the cause of the crash.

A report will be prepared for the coroner.
