BY LAUREN FREEMANTLE

A 36-year-old woman has died in a horrific car and truck accident at Denman earlier this morning.

Police say a Hyundai hatchback travelling east along Denman Road collided with a rigid truck heading in the opposite direction around 4am.

The woman driving the car sadly died at the scene, while the 45-year-old truck driver sustained minor injuries and was taken to Muswellbrook Hospital.

He's undergoing mandatory testing.

A brief is being prepared for the coroner while crash investigations continue.
