Another horror accident on Moloto Road

Six people, including a three-month-old baby boy, were killed in a head-on collision which wiped out two families and orphaned two children on Mpumalanga’s notorious Moloto Road. The smash, which left five people critically injured, happened late Thursday afternoon near Jakkalsdans. Earlier this month, 17 people were killed when a bus slammed into a panel van and a car in the same area. The Pretoria News says two of the victims were burnt to death when their car exploded in a ball of flames. The newspaper quotes a police member as saying government has to do more besides widening and resurfacing roads.
