A blue Mazda 6 was travelling towards Randfontein CBD at the robot near Yellow Stone car dealership.
Martin Pieters, driver of the vehicle that was crashed into explained,
The robot was green and as I passed the robot the taxi drove over the red robot and crashed into me.”
Helipad paramedics and a policeman from Westonaria were on scene first followed by a Powergate Towing truck.
The occupants of the taxi sustained minor injuries and one female occupant was taking to the hospital by an EMS ambulance.
