Qld: Two injured after car crashes into tree

Police believe fatigue may have been a factor .. in a car crash north of Brisbane that's
left two teenagers in hospital for Christmas.

The 18-year-old driver escaped unhurt .. after he was thrown from his car when it veered
off Duffield Road at Kallangur and slammed into a tree about four o'clock this morning.

A 17-year-old male passenger had to be cut from the vehicle and was taken to Royal
Brisbane Hospital with head injuries.

A 17-year-old female passenger was taken to Redcliffe Hospital with suspected internal injuries.

A police spokeswoman says it appears they'd been driving through the night .. and were
very close to their destination when they crashed.
