Four killed in crash on N1 in Limpopo
Four people have been killed in a head-on collision between a bus and a minibus taxi on the N1 outside Musina.
Ten others were injured in the crash early on Friday morning.
Limpopo Transport spokesperson Mike Maringa says it is believed that the driver of the minibus taxi lost control of the vehicle.
"The taxi driver allegedly refused to comply with the request by police to stop, but instead drove away. Police were chasing the taxi when the accident happened.
The taxi driver is amongst the four people who were certified dead on the scene. Two people were critically injured, two others escaped with serious injuries while six were treated for minor injuries.
“The road was closed for over three hours while emergency personnel cleared the scene. The bus was heading to the border and the taxi was travelling northbound.”
