The two-vehicle collision occurred at the intersection of the Princes Highway and Hector McWilliam Drive at the turn-off to Tuross Head around 4.30pm Tuesday.
A NSW Ambulance spokeswoman said paramedics were called after reports of a two-vehicle collision. She said two patients sustained minor injuries.
One of those receiving injuries was Ms Geppert who was taken to hospital for a check and then released.
“Thank whoever for airbags,” she posted on Facebook. “Just totalled the car at 100km/h. Back from hospital and all our bits are working. Amazing. Had to do a side trip in the ambulance to wait on a baby being born. Ambos are wonderful people.”
She said the baby was crowning as they got in the ambulance and so off we went. They were met at the house by a crew from Narooma and waited until all was well. The baby little boy was named Archer.
Moruya SES crews responded after initial reports a person was trapped, but subsequent crews were turned back when the person was freed. Police are investigating the cause of the accident.
