THE death of a P-plater who was killed when his car struck a tree in Sydney yesterday took the national holiday road toll to 35
The man, in his early 20s, was declared dead at the scene after the crash on Denham Court Road, Denham Court, just after 5pm.
Earlier yesterday, Tasmania recorded its first road fatality of the Christmas-New Year period when a motorcyclist was killed near Sheffield in the north of the state.
In Victoria, a man died and a woman was seriously injured after a car hit a tree on the Hume Freeway near Wangaratta late on Thursday. A man in his 30s, believed to be the driver, died at the scene, a spokesman for Ambulance Victoria said.
A 34-year-old female passenger was flown to The Alfred hospital in a serious but stable condition with multiple injuries.
The man's death takes Victoria's holiday road toll to six and its annual toll to 287, one more death than at the same time last year.
