The driver of the car was taken to Blacktown Hospital for mandatory blood and urine tests.
The westbound lanes of Richmond Road were closed for several hours while police investigated but the road has since been reopened.
An hour and a half earlier, two children were hit by a car on a street in Sydney's north shore.
A witness reported seeing the car run through a red light before it hit two boys, 4 and 6, on the corner of River Road West and Loungueville Road at Loungueville.
The four-year-old suffered a fractured leg and was taken to hospital after 10pm on Friday.
The other boy didn't need medical treatment.
Meanwhile the 25-year-old driver was breath tests and returned a negative result.
Anyone who witnesses either crash is asked to contact police.
