“We spoke to someone (on Monday) who was one of the first on the scene,” he said.

“We (police) are used to going to (crashes) but members of the public aren’t.”

A 23-year-old woman, who was driving the Holden, was taken to Sir Charles Gairdner Hospital with life-threatening injuries.

Officers charged a Two Rocks man with dangerous driving causing death, dangerous driving occasioning grievous bodily harm and driving with a court-suspended licence.

He is due to appear in Joondalup Magistrates Court on October 26.
