Community safety, security and liaison (DCSSL) MEC Pat Ngomane has reiterated his call to motorists to use the road with extreme caution following the death of three people in a head-on collission.
It occurred on the R40 between Bushbuckridge and Accornhoek at around 23:00 and involved two sedans.
Accoring to DCSSL spokesman Moeti Mmusi, one of the drivers and two passengers died at the scene.
Three were seriously injured and are receiving treatment in hospital.
