A 26-year-old woman is in a critical condition after a serious traffic crash on the Gold Coast last night.
Police say the woman was driving a hatchback on the M1 in Helensvale just before 8:30pm, when it crashed into the rear of a large prime mover.
The car then side-swiped another vehicle before coming to a stop against guardrail wires.
The woman and sole occupant of the hatchback was taken to Gold Coast University Hospital in a critical condition.
