An Isuzu bakkie towing a trailer loaded with building material overturned on the northbound lane of the R102 between the Verulam and Canelands, KZN robots a short while ago (Thursday).
Passing motorists contacted the Reaction Unit South Africa (RUSA) Operations Center at approximately 11:33 requesting assistance at the scene. RUSA members were dispatched and on arrival discovered a white Isuzu bakkie lying on its side in the centre median. The driver and his passenger managed to exit the vehicle prior to the arrival of First Responders.
It was established that the occupants of the bakkie had purchased building material which was loaded on a trailer. While travelling on the R102 the axle on the trailer detached which resulted in the bakkie overturning.
Neither occupant was injured.
