Update on Kyle Sandilands’ Chauffeur After M Rolls-Royce Crash: Heroes Rescue Him

Kyle Sandilands’ manager Bruno Bouchet has provided an update on the radio star’s driver after he was involved in a devastating accident over the weekend.

Kyle, 54, revealed on KIIS FM’s Kyle & Jackie O show on Monday that his chauffeur George Plassaras had been involved in a collision with a $1million Rolls-Royce that left him with ‘multiple broken bones’.

George suffered a broken spine, broken ribs, a ruptured spleen and diaphragm, a torn open abdomen, two broken hips and two broken femurs after the vehicle smashed into his car at 3.30am on Saturday in Rose Bay.

Bruno told Daily Mail Australia on Tuesday, George woke up from a coma on Sunday night and only remembers ‘pulling out of his street and then being cut out of his van’ by a heroic rescue team.

‘Despite his condition, he still has a great sense of humour and was making jokes about how badly his friend’s NRL team was going this season,’ he added.

The young woman who crashed her Rolls-Royce into George’s Mercedes was allegedly drunk and will face court.

The high-speed, head-on collision occurred at about 3.30am on Saturday at New South Head Road in Rose Bay, in the city’s east.

NSW Police allege LanLan Yang, 23, veered onto the wrong side of the road, slamming into a Mercedes van being driven by the chauffeur.

George, who runs Dakota Limousines, was trapped in the wreckage as witnesses rushed to call triple zero.

He could be heard yelling for help inside the crushed vehicle, as emergency crews from NSW Police Rescue and Fire and Rescue NSW worked to free him.

The crash was captured on nearby CCTV which appeared to show Yang’s luxury SUV allegedly veering into oncoming traffic before the violent collision.

Police allege Yang carried out a roadside breath test, which returned a positive result, and she was arrested at the scene.

Yang is scheduled to appear at Downing Centre Local Court on August 15.
