Shocking taxi accident caught on camera
Updated | By Jane Linley-Thomas
Dashcam footage showing a horrifying taxi accident somewhere in South Africa has been shared on social media. Warning: Upsetting footage.
Dashcam footage has captured the moment of impact when two taxis scream towards each other and hit head on.
This quick and unforgiving footage is harsh. I think almost daily how terrified I'd be having to travel in a wayward taxi hurtling along the highway. My gorgeous domestic goddess climbs into a taxi every weekend and I make sure she sms's me when she gets home, otherwise I stress all weekend wondering if she got home safely.

Everyday I see how most taxi drivers drive with such speed and disregard for the lives they carry and for the road rules.
It is recorded that over 650 taxi accidents have taken place since 2013, but those are just the ones that are reported. How scary!
