A man has died after a car veered off a Queensland road, crashed into trees and spilt in half.
Police say the crash occurred around 8.40pm on Friday night when a car travelling west on Maleny-Kenilworth Road near the Sunshine Coast overtook several cars.
The car then left the road, impacted with the trees and split into two pieces.
The 22-year-old passenger died at the scene while the 39-year-old driver was taken to Sunshine Coast University Hospital with minor injuries.
An officer at the scene told reporters it had been a "harrowing" sight.
"It's not one we come across all that often," he said.
Investigations into the crash are ongoing.
