The Major Collision Investigation Unit is currently probing a severe traffic incident that occurred in Werribee earlier today, involving a motorcyclist and two other vehicles. The collision took place on Bulban Road at approximately 9.40am, leading to significant injuries for the occupants involved.
According to preliminary reports, a motorcyclist, accompanied by a pillion passenger, was navigating a bend along Bulban Road when they lost control of the vehicle, resulting in a collision with two oncoming vehicles.
