According to Chris Botha, media liaison officer for Netcare 911, reports from the scene indicate that the man was traveling towards Boksburg when his vehicle veered off the roadway and landed on top of a truck in a dealership next to the highway.
“When paramedics arrived at the scene they found that the driver had been ejected from the wreckage and was lying on the highway,” said Botha.
“Tragically, he had died due to the extensive injuries that he sustained.”
