Thirteen people have lost their lives in crashes on Queensland's roads this week.
The death of a 20-year-old woman in a crash on the New England Highway near Crows Nest on Friday comes at the end of a dreadful week for the state.
Her death and that of a 90-year-old man who passed away after being injured in an incident on Thursday fell on the annual Fatality Free Friday safety initiative.
Police have also confirmed homicide detectives are investigating the deaths of a family in a crash on Monday, and are considering the possibility it may have been a murder-suicide.
Charmaine Harris McLeod, 35, and her children Aaleyn, 6, Matilda, 5, Wyatt, 4, and Zaidok, 2, died in a fiery head-on crash with a truck near Kingaroy.
They have not been added to the official toll because Queensland Police Commissioner Ian Stewart says there is a possibility the crash was not an accident.
An investigation into that crash is ongoing.
