CCTV footage appears to show a white Toyota Tarago striking the two pedestrians before crashing into two cars on the opposite side of the road.

Another two pedestrians can be seen escaping the collision by centimetres.

A woman, believed to be in her 30s, was treated at the scene before being taken to Liverpool Hospital in a critical condition.

A man, believed to be in his 60s, was also taken to hospital in a critical condition, arriving at St George Hospital.

The driver, an 82-year-old man, was treated at the scene before being taken to hospital for mandatory testing and further assessment.

A witness told 7NEWS the Tarago appeared to run a red light before crashing into the pedestrians.

Another witness said the woman was unresponsive after the crash.

“Her ears were bleeding and [so was] her nose, and she was not talking,” she said.

The husband of a woman whose car was struck while stopped at a red light said she had been left deeply shaken.

“She just told me she had a big accident. It’s really bad. She’s very traumatised. She’s very scared,” he said.

“I came all the way from home to be with her, and then I saw this.”

7NEWS understands the male pedestrian had attended midday prayers at Lakemba Mosque and was walking home when he was hit.

A crime scene has been established as police investigate the circumstances surrounding the crash.

Anyone with information or dashcam footage is urged to contact Crime Stoppers.
