警方已确认两名男子驾驶的卡车,以及事故发生的地点和大致时间。但车辆为何驶入彼此的行驶路径,警方尚未公开确定。重大交通事故调查组的警员正在调查事故情况,并呼吁目击者以及持有相关影像的人士提供信息,以填补这一空白。2
56岁男子驾驶一辆白色沃尔沃牵引车,拖挂一辆半挂车。33岁男子驾驶一辆红白相间的肯沃斯牵引车,也拖挂一辆半挂车。警方称,碰撞前两辆车朝相反方向行驶。两名男子均受重伤,并在现场死亡。2
公路上遍布火焰与残骸
消防与紧急服务部门一名发言人告诉ABC,消防员上午约7时抵达时,发现两辆卡车都已陷入火海。志愿消防员和职业消防员均被派往现场灭火。一架紧急救援直升机也被派出,此外还有救护车前往响应。1
ABC描述的航拍画面显示,烧焦、扭曲的残骸散落在路面上,消防员正在用水枪冲洗。公路旁大片地面被烧焦。警车和消防车停在残骸附近的路边,附近交通出现拥堵。1
据广播机构报道,火灾据悉已被扑灭。这一说法带有保留,与警方明确确认两人死亡,以及消防部门描述救援人员抵达时两辆车均在燃烧的说法不同。1
事故后仍未解答的问题
事故对其他道路使用者造成的直接影响是,大东部公路靠近奎灵顿路的路段封闭。ABC在11月4日的报道建议司机改走其他路线。目前尚未确认道路何时重新开放、封闭路段的确切范围,以及具体的绕行道路;不应将这篇有日期的报道视为道路目前仍处于封闭状态的确认。1
对于当前出行安排,西澳大利亚州主干道路部门(Main Roads WA)建议驾驶者查看其出行地图,了解道路封闭、事故、路况和限制。出行前应查阅这一实时信息服务,而不是依赖事故当天的道路封闭信息。11
调查人员正在征集与事故有关的信息和影像,包括行车记录仪及手机拍摄的画面。知情者可拨打 1800 333 000 联系犯罪举报热线。西澳大利亚州警方的通报还提供了直接上传影像、供调查人员查看的渠道。2
受到道路事故影响的人士可拨打 1300 004 814 联系西澳道路创伤援助服务(Road Trauma Support WA)。就调查而言,情况很明确:两人死亡已获确认,但卡车为何相撞仍未查明。2

播出原貌
- Two truck drivers died after their vehicles collided head-on and caught fire. The crash closed Great Eastern Highway and brought nine firefighting crews to the scene. Investigators are trying to find out what brought the trucks into each other's path.
- Meckering sits about 130 kilometres from Perth, in Western Australia's Wheatbelt. Police place the collision on Great Eastern Highway near Quellington Road. It happened on Wednesday, November fourth, twenty twenty-six.
- A 56-year-old man drove the white Volvo prime mover, the cab pulling a semi-trailer. A 33-year-old man drove the red-and-white Kenworth, also towing a semi-trailer. Police say the trucks were travelling in opposite directions.
- Both men suffered critical injuries and died at the scene.
- The trucks collided at about six forty-five in the morning. Around seven, firefighters arrived to find both vehicles engulfed in flames. Volunteer and career crews were sent to tackle the fire.
- Nine firefighting crews were dispatched, along with four ambulance crews. An emergency helicopter was sent too.
- Charred, mangled wreckage lay across the highway as firefighters hosed it down. One vehicle was a refrigerated truck, and the other towed a container trailer. A large patch of ground beside the road was scorched.
- Police cars and fire trucks lined the road near the wreckage, while traffic banked up nearby.
- The fire was reportedly extinguished. Great Eastern Highway was closed near Quellington Road, and drivers were advised to find another route on November fourth. A reopening time hasn't been confirmed. Main Roads WA's Travel Map carries current road information.
- Police haven't said why the trucks collided. Officers from the Major Crash Investigation Section are examining the circumstances and seeking witnesses and footage.
- Police are asking anyone with information to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000. They're also seeking dashcam or mobile-phone footage relating to the collision. Their appeal provides a channel to upload that footage directly to investigators.
- Road Trauma Support WA offers support to people affected by a road crash on 1300 004 814.
