Police are yet to lay charges in relation to the crash which killed 24-year-old Tauranga man Gregory Woledge.
The young electrician was killed on August 12, when the van he was driving towards Welcome Bay crashed through the bridge railing on the Maungatapu causeway and fell about five metres into Rangataua Bay.
Police are still investigating the fatal crash which killed Gregory Woledge.
Police say it appears a Mitsubishi car travelling towards Mount Maunganui crossed the centreline, colliding with the van causing it to crash through the railing.
Five people, including a police officer who dived into the water to rescue the passenger of the van, were taken to hospital as a result of the crash.

I'm constantly amazed at how quickly police police investigate when it comes to drugs as opposed to how long it takes to investigate an accident resulting in death. There is a family out there wanting to know the circumstances of their loved ones death, but because there is no 'revenue' in it for the police, it is not given priority. I'd love to know WHY it takes so long.

There is plenty going on behind the scenes since this has happened that you as the public do not see. Just because you see a posting on here in the Sunlive update news does not mean that they have just got started.
