A driver of the Bakkie has sustained moderate injuries after losing control of the vehicle while traveling on the M7 east bound and went through the centre medium and landed on the M7 west bound near the Hans Dettman on ramp this morning.
ER24 paramedics arrived on the scene and found the Bakkie stationary in the middle of the three lanes, with a second light motor vehicle near to the scene off the road into thick bush. It’s believed that the driver of the car avoided the Bakkie when it came through the centre medium and lost control and went into the bush.
The driver of the Bakkie was treated for suspected neck and back injuries and pains to legs. He was stabilised on scene and transported to Life Crompton Hospital for further medical care. The driver of the other vehicle was unharmed in the accident.
Traffic was slightly affected due to the accident but the necessary authorities were on the scene.
