Four cars collided with three cows on the N2 north near the Umgababa off ramp near Toti this evening at about 7.30pm.
Reports indicate that that the three cows were walking on the highway and were spaced over about two hundred metres.
Netcare 911 paramedics found one of the vehicles had overturned and rolled down the road, the wreckage coming to rest on its wheels.
The wreckages and dead cattle were obstructing the highway. One of the cows was pregnant and gave birth after she was hit by one of the vehicles. Both mother and calf died at the scene.
The occupants of the vehicles miraculously escaped uninjured, however the roadway will be obstructed for some time while the emergency services assist with the removal of the dead cattle from the highway.
