Police have charged a 19-year-old man following a collision at Benair on Sunday evening in which four people were injured.
A police spokesperson said about 5:30pm a Holden Colorado utility was turning off the Bunya Highway into an address when it was struck by a Nissan Navara 4WD travelling in the same direction.
The Navara then left the road and hit a tree.
A QAS spokesperson said paramedics assessed five people at the scene with four taken to Kingaroy Hospital in a stable condition.
The injured included a 24-year-old Kingaroy man who was a passenger in the Navara and the 24-year-old Kingaroy driver.
The male driver of the Colorado, a 19-year-old Edens Landing man, also received minor injuries.
A police spokesperson said the Edens Landing man allegedly tested positive to a mid-range drink driving offence after the crash.
He will appear in Kingaroy Magistrates Court on February 21.
Investigations into the crash are continuing.
