Major Crash have charged a driver involved in a serious crash at McLaren Vale last night.


About 5.40pm Sunday 28 March emergency services were called to the intersection of Main Road and McMurtrie Road after a black Subaru travelling west collided with a Nissan Pulsar travelling south and a grey Subaru travelling north.


Six people were taken to hospital with non-life threatening injuries. The passenger in the Pulsar, a 60-year-old Willunga woman, was airlifted to the Flinders Medical Centre where she remains in a critical condition.


The intersection was closed for several hours while emergency services and Major Crash were at the scene but has since been reopened.


About 6pm this evening, Monday 29 March, the driver of the black Subaru, a 56-year-old Whyalla man, was arrested and charged with causing harm by dangerous driving and driving without due care. He was bailed to appear at the Adelaide Magistrates Court on 10 June.


Anyone who witnessed the crash who has not yet spoken to police is asked to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000 or report on line at www.crimestopperssa.com.au
