2 hurt as car plunges down M13 embankment
Two people are receiving treatment after the light motor vehicle they were travelling in plunged down an embankment off the M13 on Fields Hill near Pinetown.
Emergency services who responded to the scene say the vehicle crashed about 30-metres down the embankment.
Paramedics and rescue services had to use specialised equipment to reach the vehicle last night. The man and woman had both managed to avoid serious injuries.
They were treated on scene before being taken to hospital. Authorities are probing the cause of the crash.
Meanwhile, a biker was killed in a separate incident near Danhauser in northern KZN yesterday afternoon. ER24 says the man allegedly struck a pothole on the R602.
It's understood the man sustained severe injuries to his chest and head. Medics found the biker in a critical condition and tried to administer treatment for about 40 minutes.
Sadly though he passed away on scene.
