The bakkie involved in the crash.
Two people sustained moderate injuries during a collision at the intersection of Shaft Street and the R28 yesterday noon today, August 7 in West Village, on the West Rand, Krugersdorp News reports.
It is believed the driver of a Toyota Hilux bakkie pulled away from the intersection while driving next to a truck.
Eyewitnesses said a dog allegedly ran in front of the bakkie and the driver swerved into the truck, causing both the bakkie and the truck to overturn and land on the centre island.
Paramedics were called to scene soon after the crash. Both the drivers sustained moderate injuries, and were transported to hospital.
The West Rand District Fire and Rescue team was on scene and covered the liquid spillage with sand.
