An accident involving four vehicles caused chaos on the N1 in the direction of the city centre last night.

It is alleged that a bakkie rear ended an Audi which caused a motorcyclist to lose control of his motorbike and to hit a vehicle and then burst into flames. The bakkie, Audi and another vehicle then also caught fire.

It is reported that the fire was extinguished quickly on the arrival of the Fire Department. Two patients were taken with moderate injuries to various nearby hospitals.

Traffic was at a stand still and backed up past Sable Road.

Police and traffic officials responded quickly to try and get order back on the roads.
