An out-of-control truck left a trail of destruction in its wake on the M7 in Durban on Tuesday morning.
Scores of people were injured in the incident, which forced a complete closure of the arterial route through the south Durban basin.
Rescuecare spokesperson Garrith Jamieson said: "Under the bridge, near South Coast Road, was littered with wrecked cars. A total of two trucks, four minibus taxis and 14 light motor vehicles were involved," he said.
"Twenty people were injured in the multi-vehicle crash. The wounded were treated and stabilised at the scene before they were transported by ambulance to area hospitals."
