Woman charged over Hunter Valley crash A WOMAN has been charged with multiple driving offences following the death of a man in a three-car collision in the NSW Hunter Valley last year. A 31-year-old Cessnock man died at Pokolbin on November 26 after his Commodore sedan was involved in a crash with a Ford sedan and a parked Toyota utility about 5.30am (AEDT). The 27-year-old female driver of the Ford and her 31-year-old passenger were hospitalised with leg injuries, while the driver of the ute was not injured. The woman was arrested on Wednesday and charged with nine driving offences, including failure to display P plates, driving an unregistered vehicle, negligent driving causing death, and driving under the influence. She was refused bail and remanded in custody until next month when she will appear before Penrith Local Court.
