An accident this morning on the M7 east bound in Durban claimed the life of one person after the car she was driving in lost control and landed in front of a petrol tanker.

The exact details to the cause of the accident will remain the subject of a police investigation.

Netcare 911 Chris Botha said a mini had travelled toward North Park when the lady lost control, went into the opposite lane and then landed in front of a petrol tanker.

Botha said the petrol tanker crashed into her and pushed the vehicles off the road through the barriers and just stopped before it went down a very steep embankment.

Botha said tragically the lady died on scene due to the extensive injuries that she had sustained.
