A "dazed'' man involved in a Queenstown crash that left a woman critically injured may have left the crash site and been picked up by a truck driver.
Police are again appealing for information about the Mach 13 crash, which resulted in a car being upturned against the rear wall of the Gorge Road retail centre.
The woman remains in a critical but stable condition in Dunedin Hospital.
Detective Sergeant Brian Cameron said one of the vehicle's other occupants told police that he was left dazed after the crash, but remembered walking back into Queenstown where got a lift from the driver of a heavy motor vehicle, possibly a rubbish truck.
The truck took the occupant from near the ASB Bank on Camp St in the CBD to the Arrowtown Junction, at the intersection with State Highway 6.
''We hope the driver of the truck will remember picking up this man - who is described as dark-skinned and aged in his mid-20s, who had suffered leg and head injuries in the crash.''
This would have occurred sometime after 5am.
Police would like to speak to the driver of the truck and are asking that they contact Detective Matt Jones of the Queenstown Police on (03) 441 1600.
