A woman was killed and 45 passengers injured when a Roadlink bus overturned on the N1 highway south of Kroonstad, police said on Thursday.
Free State police spokesperson Maselela Langa said the woman, trapped in the wreckage, died on the scene.
“The rest of the passengers were taken to the Kroon Private hospital for treatment.”
Langa said the accident happened when the driver apparently tried to avoid an oncoming truck some 15km south of Kroonstad on the N1 around 04:00.
