The woman was pronounced dead at the scene, while the male driver was taken to Jersey Shore University Medical Center, where he succumbed to his injuries a short while later, Linskey said.
There were no passengers in either vehicle, and the identities of the drivers are being temporarily withheld pending family notification.
