Rainbow rollover witness 'can't see how they survived'


 
" I came home past it as the ambulance was leaving and can't see how they survived," Mr Stewart said.
"Must have been airbags that saved them. The look made me feel sick," he said.

Mr Stewart has spent years campaigning to get more pullover bays and overtaking lanes on both roads, which have only become busier as the local population has grown and visitations from the south east corner have skyrocketed since COVID.
He said he had still had no word from Gympie Regional Council on the fate of a petition to demand those changes "but will keep trying".
