A dramatic incident occurred at a rail/road level crossing in Kadoma last night when a lorry carrying sand lost control and rammed into a passing train. The incident took place at around 2350hrs, and according to eyewitnesses, the driver and his passenger jumped off the truck just in time, leaving it to collide with the last two wagons of the train.
The two men were rushed to hospital for treatment, but fortunately, their injuries were not serious, and they were discharged after receiving medical attention. The cause of the incident is believed to be a loss of control of the lorry as it approached the level crossing.
The incident highlights the importance of caution and vigilance when approaching rail/road level crossings. Authorities will likely investigate the circumstances surrounding the incident to determine the exact cause and to identify measures to prevent similar incidents in the future.
