Rescue Care's Garrith Jamieson says both drivers needed to be extricated from their vehicles.

''At this stage both drivers are severely entrapped in the wreckage. They are both seriously injured and advanced life support paramedics are busy treating them.

''The M7 going towards the Bluff has been closed to the N2, so I would advice all motorists to avoid that area,'' he said.

Traffic is extremely congested in the area and motorists are advised to avoid the area for now and use alternative routes.

UPDATE: The drivers of the truck and car have now died.
