A man driving his four-year-old son and wife has been charged with drink-driving after a head-on collision in the NSW Blue Mountains.
The 27-year-old man was driving his Ford on the Great Western Highway at Warrimoo with his wife and son when he crossed the median strip and collided with a Mazda travelling in the opposite direction.
The Ford hit a concrete guard rail before stopping on the wrong side of the road, police said.
The family escaped injury but a 38-year-old man driving the Mazda was taken to Westmead Hospital with head injuries.
The Ford driver, from Wentworthville, was charged with mid-range drink-driving and his licence was suspended on the spot.
He was bailed to appear before Penrith Local Court on September 12.
