A 30-year-old Banya man has died after his motorcycle collided with an SUV at Woody Point on Saturday afternoon, Queensland Police Service said.
Preliminary inquiries indicate the motorcycle was heading south on Oxley Avenue at about 5.04pm when it collided with the SUV at the intersection of King Street. The rider died at the scene.

Forensic Crash Unit investigations are ongoing to determine whether speed was a contributing factor in the crash.
Police said the Queensland Police Service is committed to reducing the number of lives lost on the state's roads, but enforcement alone cannot stop all dangerous driving behaviours. Police said every choice made behind the wheel matters, and that driving under the influence, speeding, driving distracted or fatigued, or not wearing a seatbelt puts lives at serious risk. They said these behaviours will not be tolerated and that Queenslanders can expect police anywhere, anytime.
Police have asked that anyone referring to the crash quote reference number QP2602151884.
