WATCH: Car crashes into petrol station in KZN

A routine visit to the Engen One Stop on the N2 highway between eSikhaleni and Empangeni in KwaZulu-Natal became a near brush with death for those injured in a car crash on Sunday. 

According to Zululand Observer, a car drove into the petrol station’s forecourt at a high speed, ramming into a car before bouncing into another. 

Only a petrol pump was destroyed in the accident, and no deaths were reported. 

Three people were however injured, and were transported to hospital by a private ambulance. 

The car very narrowly missed a large petrol tanker parked nearby. 

City of uMhlathuze Fire and Rescue were at the scene, and a police investigation is underway, it was further reported.
