Face of Nation : A motorcyclist has died after crashing into a car on a country road north of Adelaide. Emergency services were called to the intersection of Noack Rd and Rosedale Scenic Rd in Rosedale just after 3.30pm on Saturday.

A Medstar team attended the scene but the man died at the scene. Major Crash investigators are attending the scene of the crash. In an earlier incident, a Medstar chopper was sent to a serious crash in the state’s Mid North after a truck and car collided.
