    A coroner has found failure to wear seatbelts contributed to the deaths of four men in a Canterbury crash

    A coroner has found failure to wear seatbelts contributed to the deaths of four men in a Canterbury crash


    The collision claimed the lives of Junwoo Park, Sangseo Kim, and coach Bum-Hee Cho in Geraldine in August last year.

    Hyunseo Han later died in hospital in December.

    They were all members of a Korean ski racing school in New Zealand for the Winter Games.

    Coroner Mary-Anne Borrowdale says all four might have survived if they had been wearing seatbelts.
