Emergency services worked to stabilise the Ford driver, who was pinned under the vehicle, and to free a man trapped inside the red ute.
Three people were transported to hospital by road. A man in his 20s, believed to be the driver of the red ute, suffered upper and lower body injuries and was taken to The Alfred Hospital in a stable condition. A woman in her 30s with lower body injuries was also transported to The Alfred, where she remains stable.
A man in his 40s, believed to be the driver of the Ford twin cab, sustained upper and lower body injuries and was taken to The Royal Melbourne Hospital in a stable condition.
Both vehicles sustained significant damage. Police are appealing for witnesses or anyone with dashcam footage to come forward as the investigation continues.
