Vehicle overturns as storm hits

Taxi overturns amidst storm.

A taxi driver is lucky to walk away with minor injuries after his taxi overturned on Ontdekkers Road near Ruhamah Drive.

The incident occurred during the rainstorm on Friday night as the driver lost control of the taxi and parked it on its side towards oncoming traffic.

This caused a huge backlog of vehicles as medical services struggled to arrive at the scene.

This was made worse by traffic lights which were not working.
