According to Netcare 911 the initial accident happened when a good Samaritan had stopped to help a motorist whose vehicle had broken down last night. 


The service's Shawn Herbst says he was then knocked over by another vehicle moving along the busy highway. 


Herbst says this caused a number of vehicles to also crash and resulted in numerous injury cases.


"Reports suggest a good Samaritan who was helping a motorist was struck down by a car in the initial incident", he said.


"A secondary collision involving a truck, two cars, SUV and a minibus then occurred leaving multiple injured. The occupants of all vehicles sustained minor serious injuries and had to be treated on scene before hospital transportation", Herbst said.
