A 25-year-old male passenger was airlifted to St George Hospital in a critical condition.
The driver and sole occupant of the sedan – a 21-year-old man – was taken to Wollongong Hospital in a serious but stable condition.
Police established a crime scene and the Crash Investigation Unit began investigating.
