The rental van ploughed into the back of a ute that had stopped at an intersection in Newport, in Melbourne ‘s south-west. The ute was then pushed into a silver sedan in front of it, but as the drivers got out, the van instead sped off down the highway without exchanging any details.

Not only was the back of the ute severely damaged, but a chunk of the van was also ripped off during the crash.
