Seven people, including a child lost their lives last night in what has been described as a horror smash accident on the N1 near Joostenbergvlakte.
ER24 spokesperson Derrick Banks says the accident occurred when the vehicle they were travelling in crashed into a concrete barrier.
Bank says when they arrived on the scene the vehicle had burst into flames after landing on its roof.
The body of one of the victims who had been flung clear was found on train lines below the highway.
Banks says they could see a second person in the flames but, once the fire had been doused, they found six badly burnt bodies, including that of a child, in the vehicle.
Police are investigating the incident.
