    The coroner will hear from NZTA, Police, Council and the family of a driver who died -- in an inquiry into a horror crash in Mid Canterbury


    The crash killed mother of seven Chante Harmer and her two youngest children after their car collided with another vehicle in 2019 near Ashburton.

    An inquest into the crash began this morning in the Ashburton District Court before Coroner Marcus Elliot.

    A fourth person in Harmer's vehicle - a teenager - suffered critical injuries in the crash.

    The driver of the other vehicle suffered minor injuries.

    Both those injured have name suppression.
