Three Bangladeshi tourists were killed in a two-vehicle collision on Coppins Crossing Road in Australia's Canberra on Sunday, police said, reports UNB.

Shahid and Sri Khan, aged 61 and 54 respectively, died at the scene along with a younger relative Roni, 21, according to the Daily Mail.

The incident occurred as a red Toyota hatchback and white Toyota van collided on the road just south of Hazel Hawke Avenue in Canberra's west about 2:45pm, reports ABC News.

Both drivers are in hospital, with the driver of the car in a critical condition.

Police are still investigating the cause of the crash.

"It's an ongoing investigation, we won't speculate at this stage, but lower speeds mean people are safer on the roads," officials said.

Police are inquiring any witnesses or anyone who has dashcam footage of the accident to contact Crime Stoppers.
