Crisis Medical Paramedics responded to a collision between a truck and car on the N2 north bound at Queen Nandi Drive yesterday evening.
First to arrive on scene, paramedics found the badly crumpled remains of a Toyota Tazz. The occupants were assessed and it was found that two men had sustained serious injuries including spinal injuries, facial injuries and suspected fracture to the right shoulder. Both men were carefully removed from the vehicle on a spine board before being fully immobilised. Once both patients were stable, they were transported by Crisis Medical ambulance to a local hospital for further medical care.
From on scene reports, it is believed the Toyota lost control and collided with the truck however the exact circumstances will be investigated by SAPS.
