A car lost control on the Buckets Way at Gloucester and slid down an embankment early Saturday morning, killing the 23-year-old driver.
Later that morning, a 38-year-old motor bike rider died after colliding with a utility near Dungog when he tried to overtake another motorcycle.
Police believe speed was a factor in both these incidents.
While, on Saturday night, a 27-year-old died when his Commodore crashed into a power pole on the Golden Highway near Jerrys Plains.
It's prompted Highway Patrol Assistant Commissioner, John Hartley to urge motorists to exercise greater caution and better judgement.
13 people have lost their lives on Hunter roads in the past 3 months.
