A 68-year-old truck driver whose vehicle collided with a bus on a sweeping bend south of Brisbane killing the driver will walk free after a successful appeal against his sentence.

The Queensland Court of Appeal on Wednesday ordered instead that he receive a three-year prison sentence suspended immediately.
