Burnout driver near fatal Wodonga site almost causes another crash

Dashcam video taken from a nearby car shows the white utility take off at high speed next to the left southbound lane of the causeway on April 2.

The car - which appeared to have been parked near a red Holden utility, a silver Commodore wagon and a white Subaru before the incident - almost hit a Holden Captiva.

The Captiva driver was forced to brake as the white ute performed a burnout, fishtailed next the vehicle, and continued at high speed.
