A man has died in a freak accident north-west of Melbourne, after a tree fell onto his car and then he drove into another tree.
The crash happened in Bullengarook, near Gisborne, about 2pm on Thursday.
Police investigating the crash believe the car was travelling north on Bacchus Marsh Road, near the corner of William Road, when a tree fell onto the car.
"The driver has then left the road and crashed into another tree," a police spokeswoman said.
The man, who is yet to be identified, was the only person inside the car. He died at the scene.
Bacchus Marsh Road and Williams Road were closed for several hours following the crash, but both have since reopened.
The death brought Victoria's road toll to 23, down from 27 at the same time last year.
Anyone who witnessed the collision is urged to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.
