Elderly man dead after Sydney crash

An elderly man has died in hospital a day after his car collided with a tip truck in Sydney.

It's believed the 89-year-old man was making a u-turn when he crashed with the 3 tonne tipper truck on Pittwater road, North Ryde, on Monday afternoon.

He was taken to Royal North Shore Hospital with fractured ribs, chest injuries and a fractured pelvis, and died later that night.

The truck driver was not injured.
