It is alleged that one of the taxi’s tyres burst which caused it to turn onto its right side and start sliding. A twenty six-year-old female was airlifted from the scene by the ER24-Discovery Medicopter and flown to Tygerberg Hospital for the further treatment of her serious injuries.
Another two patients were transported by a road ambulance to a nearby hospital. It is believed that there were ten occupants in the taxi when the incident occurred.
