The Congress of South African Trade Unions has extended its condolences to the families of the ten passengers who died in a collision between a bus and a truck on the N3 in KwaZulu-Natal.
COSATU national spokesperson Patrick Carven said that they wish 37 the injured passengers a full and speedy recovery.
“The passengers were on a bus taking people from Rustenburg and Mthata. It is a tragic time of year when families should be coming together to celebrate peace and prosperity, so many families have been plunged into sadness, because of accidents on our roads, as workers return home from their place of work for a well deserved holiday,” says Craven.
They have welcomed the investigation into the accident and urge on all South Africans to drive safely and to keep accidents to a minimum.
