Two learners were killed early this morning in a crash involving three vehicles on the N4 toll road between Vosman and eMalahleni.
“Several learners sustained injuries ranging from mild to moderate. This happened when two mini-bus taxis and an articulated truck collided,” said Mr Moeti Mmusi from the Mpumalanga Department of Community Safety Security and Liaison.
Mmusi said it is alleged that one of the mini-busses may have stopped or slowed down on the road while the truck was allegedly already too close.
