An 18-year-old man has died following a two vehicle crash at Tuan Forest, Fraser Coast, this morning (September 30).

Initial investigations indicate a green Nissan 4WD Ute was travelling along Maryborough Cooloola Road toward Tin Can Bay at approximately 6.40am, when a crash has occurred between the vehicle and an oncoming truck.

The driver of the 4WD Ute, an 18-year-old Pialba man, died from his injuries at the scene.

A 17-year-old Torquay boy, the only passenger of the 4WD, received non-life-threatening injuries.
