One person's been killed and two others hurt in three-vehicle collision in Folweni - south of Durban. Two cars and a taxi crashed on the M35 this morning.
The driver of one of the cars was declared dead at the scene. His vehicle and the taxi, carrying only the driver and a conductor, collided head-on.
The motorist from the second car drove away from the scene.
Rescue Care's Garrith Jamieson says emergency services used the jaws of life to free the injured from the wreckage.
"Unfortunately, the driver of the light motor vehicle had sustained major injuries and there was nothing more paramedics could do for him. He was declared deceased on the scene.
Jamieson says the Durban Fire Department had to use the Jaws of life and other hydraulic equipment to cut the man free from the wreckage.
