Motorist in big trouble

A resident of Carletonville is in big trouble after he collided with a police vehicle last week.

The accident took place on August 26. As far as could be determined, members of the police in Carletonville were busy patrolling in Grundling Street at approximately 22:30.

Suddenly the driver of a vehicle driving in the opposite direction lost control of his Ford Focus and bumped into the police van.

Although neither of the vehicles were badly damaged, the driver of the Ford seemed to be under the influence of alcohol.

Cases of reckless and negligent driving and driving under the influence are being investigated.
