Driver survives Houtkop crash

SEBOKENG.- A female driver in a silver-grey VW Polo that displayed a learner-driver caution sign was rushed to hospital after she was involved in an accident on Tuesday morning.

She was apparently on her way to work. The driver survived what would have been a terrible death as her car crashed into a building and a street vendor on Houtkoplaan.
