Two people have been moderately injured in separate crashes in Hastings and Taradale today.
The first about 12.40pm involved an electric scooter and a car which collided at the intersection of Heretaunga St West and Market St, Hastings.
The second about 2.10pm involved an electric wheelchair and a vehicle near
the intersection of Gloucester St and Meeanee Rd, the western entrance to the Taradale shopping centre.
A St John Ambulance spokeswoman said they took one person to Hawke's Bay Hospital from the Hastings incident in a moderate condition.
At Taradale, where the road was blocked for some time, one person was treated at the scene.
