"We are working closely with relatives of those who lost their lives and are supporting them through what will be a very difficult time.
"Roads policing officers are working closely with our collision investigation team to piece together the evidence we have gathered in order to try and determine what led to this tragic incident taking place and took the lives of those travelling in the Nissan at the time.
