Head On Collision in Maraisburg

Three people have been injured this morning in a head on collision in Maraisburg.


Paramedics from ER24 Emergency Services responded to 6th Street in Maraisburg this morning and found that two vehicles collided with each other.

A young man believed to be in his early 20's and his mother were injured in their red vehicle they were travelling in at the time. Another man was injured in his silver bakkie. It is understood that one of the vehicles might have lost control around the bend in 6th Street before the collision.

ER24 EMS paramedics extricated the mother and her son from the vehicle. Both of them were treated on the scene and transported per ambulance to a nearby hospital.

The driver of the silver bakkie was treated on the scene, but declined hospital transportation.
