The driver of the taxi, a man aged in his 70s, was trapped in the vehicle for about 45 minutes before he was cut free by firefighters and taken to hospital.
Another man, a passenger in the taxi, was also taken to hospital after complaining of lower back pain and "tingling" in his lower body.
The female passenger in the taxi was not injured.
All lanes on the Princes Highway have reopened after earlier being closed due to the incident.
A NSW Ambulance spokeswoman said initial reports suggested the taxi was doing a u-turn and was hit by the truck on the driver's-side door.
The impact of the crash caused the taxi to spin.
