Miraculous escape for many as truck and five cars collide

No one was seriously injured when a truck and five cars collided on Marlboro Drive near the Germiston/OR Tambo off-ramp on Friday afternoon just after 4pm.

Chris Botha, spokesman for Netcare 911, said  paramedics arrived at the scene and found the truck had overturned. The roadway was obstructed with accident debris and the twisted frames of the vehicles.

Miraculously it was found that two people escaped with minor injuries while all the other people were uninjured.

Netcare 911 paramedics stabilised the two patients at the scene before they were transported to a local hospital.
