Yesterday a driver of a 1400 bakkie, that was carrying paint thinners, traveling in the direction of Bantry Bay, "blacked out" and hit a lamp post.


ER24’s Tristan Wadeley says there was no glass between the cab and the canopy, so paramedics suspect that the driver may have been over come by fumes from the cargo which caused him to "black out".


The twenty eight year old man was treated for a fracture of his right upper arm and taken to New Somerset Hospital.
