‘n Tragiese toneel het vanmiddag, 8 Oktober rondom 16:31 op die R57 op die R59-brug afgespeel toe ‘n skoolminibus en ‘n vragmotor gebots het.

Minstens vier mense is in die botsing oorlede. Nooddienste is steeds op die toneel en is daar ook ‘n noodhelikopter gekry om van die pasiënte van die toneel te vervoer.

Motoriste is gevra om waaksaam te wees, wetstoepassers se instruksies te volg en alternatiewe roetes te gebruik waar moontlik.
