A man is dead after his van left a gravel road and collided with a bank east of Bennydale in the Waikato.
Emergency services were called to the crash on Mangaokewa Road around 10:30 last night.
Inspector Marcus Lynam says it appears the driver over-corrected when one van wheel left the hard surface.
As a result the van spun, crossed the centre line, collided with a bank and rolled.
Inspector Lynam says the man wasn't wearing a seatbelt.
