Vic: Man dead after car flips off bridge

MELBOURNE, Aug 2 AAP - A 50-year-old man is dead after his four-wheel drive flipped
off a bridge and landed in the Latrobe River in Melbourne's east.

The crash happened on Boys Camp Road, Piedmont, around 9.30pm (AEST) on Saturday.

Police believe the crash happened after the Warragul man failed to negotiate a left-hand
bend on the dirt road.

The fatality brings Victoria's road toll to 181, which is one less than at the same
time last year.
