A young woman has died in hospital two days after a truck crashed into the back of her hatchback in Sydney's west.
The 24-year-old had stopped her Suzuki Swift at an intersection on the Great Western Highway in Blacktown on Monday night when it was rear-ended by a truck carrying an excavator and pushed onto the median strip.
The woman suffered severe head injuries and died in hospital on Wednesday, NSW Police said.
The 35-year-old truck driver has been tested for drugs and alcohol while his truck has been seized for mechanical tests.
