A Holden Colorado ute and a Nissan Triton ute collided at the intersection of Cosgrove Lemnos Rd and Pine Lodge North Rd at about 7.50am.

It is the same intersection that claimed the lives of four people in a crash between a car and a ute in January 2023.

Police said the Colorado had been travelling south on Pine Lodge North Rd and the ute was going west on Cosgrove-Lemnos Rd when they collided.

Traffic on the Pine Lodge North Rd faces a stop sign.

Police said the Colardo hit a ditch on the side of the road before rolling twice through a fence and into a paddock, where it ended on its roof.

The Triton rolled twice and landed in a ditch on its roof.

Both drivers were able to get out of their vehicles unassisted.

A 60-year-old man from Manns Beach in Gippsland was taken to Goulburn Valley Health by ambulance in a stable condition.

A 20-year-old Pine Lodge man, who was driving the other vehicle, was not injured.

Police investigations into the crash are ongoing.
