Ten people were killed when the driver of an allegedly speeding bus lost control and the vehicle overturned on the N1 highway in Limpopo shortly before midnight on Tuesday.
The bus was travelling from Zimbabwe to Johannesburg when the accident happened at 3 Miles in Makhado, the Limpopo department of transport and community safety said.
This led to the deaths of five men and five women, all foreigners, said spokesperson Tidimalo Chuene.
“According to reports the bus driver drove over a roundabout, the last traffic circle from Makhado towards Polokwane, at high speed, lost control and overturned, killing and injuring his passengers,” said Chuene.
