Jason Anthony Hanson pleads guilty over fatal three-vehicle Western Highway crash


A south-west Victorian man has pleaded guilty to two charges of dangerous driving causing death.

Jason Anthony Hanson, 49, appeared in the Melbourne County Court today over a three-vehicle collision on the Western Highway on September 14 last year.


He was behind the wheel of a 57-tonne B-double truck that hit the back of a car turning across oncoming traffic into a rest stop between Horsham and Dadswells Bridge.


This pushed the car into the path of a second car travelling the other way, causing a head-on collision.
