A canopy and cabless bakkie bear testimony to the horrific accident in which the driver and a passenger, travelling between Nkwaleni and Melmoth, were killed when their vehicle was involved in a head-on collision with a truck on the Melmoth Pass (R66 / R34) at around 4am on Saturday.
At Caxton, every story is written by humans. We use AI only to perform quality checks - never to generate the news. Happy reading!
People are driving recklessly after hours because traffic officials are not known to have speed traps that time of night. We all leave home early to arrive out destination within decent hours, not realizing the danger of tired truck drivers, and unworthy truck and other cars traveling the same road as yourself.
What is happing to the truck driver,he should be locked up for life! I know the driver ran away from the scene at the time and then was tracked by the police and was told to give a statement and was then told he can go.What kind of society are we living in? What justice is given here? These two people were parents and have been taken away from their families because of some other person.
These 2 people were lovely people and to have been taken off this earth in this way is disgusting. I worked with the lady for a few years and was best friends with her daughter. She never ever let life get her down and was always available to help others. This truck driver needs to spend the rest of his life in jail, paying for what he has done. There is no justice!! RIP.. :-( you both will be sorely missed!
Who is the people who died. They dont even mention them in the add.
This was my Parents in Law that died in that crash . I agree 100% that the driver must have been logged up and the key through away BUT once again the Police demonstrate that they accommodate “rotten” Cops that do not follow the necessary procedures. This driver was not even logged up. He is healthy and continues with his life while our lifes are turned upside down… :( We missed them soooo much!!
