A WOMAN was killed in a collision involving a motor vehicle and truck on the North Central Arterial at Brackenham robots last night.
The four occupants travelling in the vehicle were returning from a church service shortly before 8pm when the accident occurred at the traffic lights intersection.
The woman in the front passenger seat was declared dead on the scene while the two passengers in the back of the car, a toddler and 24-year-old woman were injured and transported to hospital.
The woman is in a critical condition, the driver suffered minor injuries.

I think trucks must have a separate route coz most accidents involve them or/and caused by them
My condolences to the family involved.
Our traffic police would rather sit in residential areas, where there are no or little possiblities of major accidents occurring and issue fines for stop street violations, than to be at known hot spots like the VeldenVlei or Brackenham robots during peak times. Truck drivers are becoming a major hazard within our city roads and I dont see any visible policing to stem their flagrant disregard for city speed limits, overloading, spillage and roadworthiness. The only visible policing I see is at the corner of Bogonia Brim and Arum Lily.Trucks should be banned from entering the city and surrounding suburbs at night. Richards Bay needs a proper truck stop.
some car drivers dont respect the trucks.the trucks cant stop or swerve like a car. Observe and stay safe.
Taxi drivers feel nothing for road works .While all the cars are waiting they over take with a high speed ! where are the traffic dept.
Trucks should banned from using the brankenham aquadene roads from the N2 they should use jon Ross high.2 much lose of life n congestion on this route
