On Friday morning, at approximately 05h45, our Centurion crew responded to a motor vehicle accident on the R511 near the M26 on the outskirts of Centurion.
A vehicle towing a trailer had rolled off the roadway, resulting in one critical patient and one patient with minor injuries.
Netcare 911 HEMS was activated to airlift the critical patient to a major trauma centre for advanced medical care.
Thank you to Lenmed, Netcare 911, Netcare 911 HEMS, ER24, and SDS Security.
Safety Tip: When towing a trailer, always reduce your speed, increase your following distance, and ensure proper weight distribution of the load. These precautions are essential to maintain stability and ensure safe towing.
