Police investigations have confirmed the car is not stolen, and it was seen driving erratically through Coolalinga before the crash.

Detective Senior Sergeant Brendan Lindner says support is being offered to the families and first responders.

“This is a tragic incident and support is being provided to the families of the children and to the first responders and members of the public who were on scene.”
