Cars land in construction hole on Durban road an hour apart

It was déjà vu for emergency workers on Sunday night when a second car landed in a construction hole on Ridge Road in Durban, an hour after another vehicle crashed into it. 

ALS Paramedics spokesperson Garrith Jamieson said there were no injuries in both crashes.

On Friday, a 70-year-old Phoenix man was traumatised after he drove into a poorly marked construction hole in Umbilo at 5am.

Residents had been complaining about unmarked construction sites and no warning signs before the crashes.
