According to a motorist who passed the accident, it occurred around 14:45. The truck is lying on its side on the left hand side of the road for motorists travelling down the pass.<\/p>\n

The driver of the truck was injured and a minor collision followed after a light motor vehicle struck the stationary truck.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

No other injuries were sustained.<\/p>\n

Although the truck is not obstructing the road, the tar surface is covered in maize, making it very slippery. There is also a fire that started at the opposite side of the road. Motorists are advised to approach with caution.<\/p>\n

A clean up and vehicle recovery has ensued.<\/p>\n
