Seven drivers have been lucky to escape either unhurt or with minor injuries after a string of crashes in the South Burnett during the past week.<\/p>\n

* * *<\/strong><\/h2>\n

No one was injured when a Ford Escape SUV crossed a footpath and ploughed through a fence and sign in Kingaroy Street, Kingaroy at 2:45pm on Monday.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The incident occurred near the Kingaroy Street store.<\/p>\n

It is believed the driver, a 49-year-old Nanango woman, lost control of the vehicle while reversing out of a driveway.<\/p>\n

Initial investigations indicate her footwear became lodged under the accelerator.<\/p>\n

Investigations are continuing.<\/p>\n

A man was transported by ambulance to Kingaroy Hospital in a stable condition with minor injuries after a single-vehicle crash in Kingaroy on Friday night.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Emergency services were called to the incident on Taylors Road at 8:38pm.<\/p>\n

The man’s Holden sedan struck a power pole. Investigations are continuing.<\/p>\n

Police are investigating the cause of a three-vehicle crash at the River Road roundabout near the Bunya Highway last Tuesday afternoon.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Emergency services were called to the crash site about 3:00pm.<\/p>\n

Officer-in-charge of Kingaroy Police, Senior Sergeant Dave Tierney, said a Toyota ute and a Hyundai hatchback had stopped at the intersection.<\/p>\n

A Holden Commodore, driven by a 57-year-old Kingaroy woman, hit the rear of ute, pushing it into the rear of the Hyundai.<\/p>\n

No one was injured but both the Commodore and the ute were extensively damaged.<\/p>\n

A 25-year-old Nanango man escaped injury when his Toyota ute struck a cow on Kingaroy-Cooyar Road at 10:30pm last Tuesday.<\/strong><\/p>\n

His vehicle then speared off and hit a tree on the opposite side of the road.<\/p>\n

The ute was badly damaged.<\/p>\n

A 72-year-old NSW man suffered minor injuries in a single vehicle crash Pierces Creek Road at Emu Creek last Monday.<\/strong><\/p>\n

A police spokesperson said the driver failed to negotiate several tight turns in his vehicle and struck an embankment which caused his vehicle to overturn.<\/p>\n

He was transported to Toowoomba Hospital.<\/p>\n
