The taxi had been travelling North, on the N1 near the Olifantsfontein bridge, in the fast lane when the driver lost control and swerved sharply to the left, crossing all the other lanes before leaving the road and rolling down an embankment coming to a stop just next to the freeway on ramp. Several passengers were flung from the vehicle as it overturned.
Arriving paramedics and a Netcare 911 doctor found one woman already dead on scene and 3 others that were critical, one of these patients, an adult male died a short while later at the scene.
