A collision has left eleven people injured after the taxi they were travelling in over turned on the R300 near the N2 fly over in the direction of Cape Town in the early parts of this morning.
ER24 arrived on the scene and found the taxi lying on its side facing oncoming traffic. The patients were found seated on the floor near the accident. They were assessed by paramedics and found that all eleven had sustained minor to moderate injuries. They were stabilised further and transported to various hospitals in the greater Cape Town region.
It is believed that the taxi driver was over taking a light motor vehicle and somehow lost control after hitting a bump in the road. The vehicle over turned and slid on its side for about 100m before coming to rest.
The necessary authorities were on the scene and would investigate the incident further.
