BAYSIDE — A mother and daughter were killed after a speeding driver veered across the road and slammed into their car, police said. 

Susana Ha, 42, and her two daughters were in the back seat of a car driven by her parents at 6 p.m. on July 1 when it was hit by a driver of a Ford Explorer who was traveling at an "unsafe speed," according to the NYPD.

The 46-year-old woman driving the Ford drove over the double yellow lines separating lanes on 210th Street near the Horace Harding Expressway and slammed into the back of the Toyota Camry that Ha was in, police said. 

Ha and her 10-year-old daughter, Angelica Ung, both of Flushing, were declared dead at Long Island Jewish Hospital, police said. 

Ha's 8-year-old daughter is in critical condition and her 74-year-old father and 67-year-old mother are in stable condition. 

The driver of the speeding car was also taken to Long Island Jewish Medical Center and is in stable condition, officials said.

Police said the crash remains under investigation.
