NSW driver charged over flood deaths

Two men who were in the cabin of the ute managed to swim to safety, but two others - aged 30 and 32 - who were travelling in the tray of the ute were swept downstream.

Their bodies were found in November downstream from the causeway.

Following an NSW Police investigation, a 41-year-old man from Guildford was arrested at Merrylands Police Station on Tuesday.

He was charged with two counts of manslaughter, two counts of dangerous driving causing death and one count of driving while suspended.

He was refused bail to appear at Parramatta Local Court on Wednesday.
