Police have named the two women killed in a head-on crash near Hamilton yesterday afternoon.
They were Christine Jeanette McRobbie, 68, from Taupo, and Marjorie West, 89, from Morrinsville.
Earlier today police said the crash may have been caused by Mrs McRobbie having a diabetes-related attack. She drifted across the
centre line and crashed into a car carrying three people, on State Highway 1B near Gordonton.
Mrs West was a rear seat passenger in the other vehicle.
Yesterday, Joshua Stephenson, 28, of Palmerston North, died after his car crossed the centre line and collided with a van in Palmerston North.
