Braai plans ruined after messy, meaty crash in KZN
A crash between a bakkie and a car saw the car’s elderly driver injured and the bakkie owner’s braai meat spoiled, after being ejected from his vehicle.
Plans for a weekend braai ended in disaster, after a bakkie transporting meat and gas collided with a car while en route to a festive gathering on Saturday morning.
The crash took place on the R102 at the Ottawa intersection in KwaZulu-Natal.
Reaction Unit South African was dispatched to the scene, where a 78-year-old female driving the car, an Opel Meriva, suffered moderate injuries. She was transported to hospital for further treatment.

The meat lay strewn on the road, along with the man’s weekend plans.
Circumstances surrounding the crash has not yet been established.
