Hit and run on Impala Road
Notorious for fatal accidents, Impala Road in Kibler Park, saw yet another accident on Saturday May 30.
KIBLER PARK – At about 11:00 a motorcyclist was travelling up Impala Road towards Kliprivier Drive, when a BMW driver overtook her and had to swerve quickly back in, clipping the back of the motorcycle, as there was an oncoming vehicle. The woman skidded about 50 metres before coming to a halt on the opposite side of the pavement. The BMW driver fled the scene of the accident.
EMS attended the scene of the accident and the injured woman was taken to hospital for treatment.
“Speed calming measures need to be implemented on this road. The speed limit is 60/kmh and no one does this. If you do try and keep to the speed limit drivers flash their lights at you and then overtake on bends. There have been many fatalities on this road,” said a man at the scene of the accident.
