Was this you?
Police need to urgently speak with a caller who made a driving complaint before a fatal crash near Mangakino last week.
The female caller was following a black Toyota RAV4 along State Highway 47 towards Turangi, at approximately 2.45pm on Monday 21 April.
She has made a report to Police about this vehicle cutting corners and crossing the centre line.
This RAV4 has shortly afterwards been involved in a fatal crash on Waipapa Road, north of Mangakino.
The driver of this vehicle has since pleaded guilty to careless driving causing death, and the 64-year-old man is due to be sentenced in the Auckland District Court on 6 May.
Police would like to speak further to the female who made the driving complaint to get more information, as their phone number appears to be a “roaming number” which does not connect when called back.
It is believed the female and another male in the car were travelling from Whanganui towards Turangi at the time.
If this was you, or you know who this pair are, please contact Police online at 105.police.govt.nz, clicking "Update Report" or by calling 105 and quoting file number 250421/4930.
