Fatal crash on Vic peninsula

A man has been killed after the driver of a car lost control and crashed into the garage of a house in the beachside suburb of Dromana.

A second man has died after a car smashed into the garage of a house on Victoria's Mornington Peninsula.

The car, with three men in it, veered off the road and ploughed into the garage in the beachside suburb of Dromana on Sunday night.

A Somerville man, 31, died at the scene, while the driver, also 31, and another male passenger were critically injured.

The driver, from Sea Lake in the state's northwest, died at The Alfred hospital on Tuesday.

The third man, a 27-year-old local, is now in a stable condition in The Alfred.

No one was in the house at the time.

Victoria's road toll stands at 97, seven more than at the same time last year.
