Two killed, two critical and several injured in a collision on Inanda Road in the Waterfall area, west of Durban.

Earlier this morning Emer-G-Med paramedics responded to the scene of a serious motor vehicle collision on Inanda Road in the Waterfall area, west of Durban. 

On arrival on scene, paramedics were met with carnage as a light motor vehicle and a light delivery vehicle were found to have collided head-on. 

Two people were found in a critical condition and were attended to by a private ambulance service.  

One male of approximately forty years of age was in a critical condition and resuscitation efforts were attempted by Emer-G-Med advanced life support practitioners, however they were unsuccessful, and he was declared deceased on the scene.  

Another male patient believed to be approximately forty years of age, was treated and stabilized on the scene before being airlifted by the Netcare911 aeromedical helicopter to a nearby hospital for further care. 

Traffic was severely affected as the roadway remained closed to allow emergency services to clear the scene. 

The cause of the collision is unclear and will form the subject of a South African Police Services investigation.
