Hermon Road in Wellington left six people injured.
It is believed that two
bakkies collided head-on into each other causing the crash.
ER24 Spokesperson Russel
Meiring said ER24 paramedics arrived on scene and found the truck sitting on
the side of the road next to a large tree. Three occupants from the truck were
found sitting next to their vehicle.
Meiring added that paramedics
found that one patient had sustained critical injuries while the two others had
sustained minor to moderate injuries. Paramedics set out treating the patients
as well as providing the critically injured patient with advanced life support.
He further sais that all the patients were treated
on scene and stabilised before they were transported to Mediclinic

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