“The body of a woman was found lying a short distance behind the vehicle.
“Paramedics assessed the woman and found that she had sustained numerous injuries and was in a critical condition.”
She was stabilised on the scene before being transported to Charlotte Maxeke Hospital.
The cause of the crash was still under investigation.
The front part of the car, housing the engine, was completely missing, with car parts strewn across the pavement. The passenger side looks completely crushed, but the driver was fortunate in that the right side of the car’s structural integrity appears to have survived the accident.
