Two men were injured this afternoon after their bakkie smashed into a tree on the N12 near the Zuurbekom turn-off near Westonaria.
ER24 paramedics arrived on the scene and found the bakkie on the side of the road, between two trees. Part of the driver’s door had been ripped open in the collision.
On assessment, paramedics found two men walking around on the scene. Both men were assessed and found to have sustained only minor to moderate injuries.
Paramedics treated both men and thereafter transported them to a nearby hospital for further treatment.
It is understood that the driver apparently lost control of the vehicle, causing it to smash into the tree.
Local authorities were on the scene for further investigations.
