Kristalle Dumesny was 18 years old when her car collided with a truck after the 2017 Easter long weekend. Kristalle received fatal injuries and sadly died at the scene.  She was driving home from her family’s holiday home when she failed to give way to a heavy vehicle at the intersection of the Augusta Highway and Copper Coast Highway, Port Augusta.  Her father Steve Dumesny saw the crash site on a media report and knew that it was his daughter’s vehicle.  He then phoned his good mate Superintendent Scott Denny who was the Office in Charge of the Local Service Area where the crash occurred asking him if his worst fear was true.
