Police said a Holden sedan allegedly veered and hit a guard rail on the left side of the road before bouncing back into its lane on the Midland Hwy west of Mooroopna at about 10.50am on Wednesday, September 23.
A Ford hatchback following behind it hit the back of the Holden as it bounced back into the lane, as the Ford did not have enough time to stop, police said.
The Ford then rolled.
The crash happened on a section of the highway between Ardmona Rd and Dhurringile Rd, as both cars travelled west.
A Mooroopna man in his 70s driving the Holden, and a Tatura man in his 50s who was driving the Ford, were taken to Goulburn Valley Health by ambulance.
