Save A 24-year-old woman was killed when her car left the road and crashed into a ditch off State Highway 1 in Manawatu last night.
Police said the woman's car left the highway, between Marton and Rata, sometime before 10.30pm.
Inspector Chris Tate of police central communications said the woman was
found dead at the scene.
"It was a single vehicle gone into the ditch, so it's left the road and gone into the ditch."
One lane was closed for part of last night but there was no disruption to traffic.
