Netcare 911 paramedics and the fire department arrived at the scene and found the man still trapped in the wreckage of his car that came to rest on the verge. While fireman used the Jaws of Life to free the injured man, medics clambered into the wreckage to stabilize him.
Once the patient was deftly immobilized and stabelised on scene, they transported him to a Netcare hospital for the care that he required.
