Bank of Zambia Truck Overturns Near Mulungushi University

A Bank of Zambia truck overturned along the Great North Road near Mulungushi University on Friday afternoon, sustaining significant damage to its cabin and container.

Police spokesperson Godfrey Chilabi said the accident occurred around 15:00 hours when a Mercedes-Benz Actros truck travelling toward Kabwe lost control, veered off the road and overturned.

The front cabin of the truck was damaged and the container dented, with debris scattered along the roadside.

Both the driver and a passenger sustained minor injuries and were taken to Kabwe Central Hospital for treatment. They were later discharged.

Preliminary police investigations indicate that excessive speed may have contributed to the accident. “The driver lost control, veered off the road and overturned,” said Chilabi.

  1. This can only happen under the incompetent tribal upnd government. Vote wisely in August. You have been warned

  2. ABOUT TIME
    Who hasn’t seen them driving like mad haaters through town and forcing people off the road
    also ZNS and prisons have blue lights doing the same

  3. Those trucks have no sense. They don’t obey laws, they drive like madmax and totally unnecessary risks becoming a danger to them as well as other road users. Look at how our friends in other countries move large amounts of cash. Just silently within the speed limits, following traffic rules and regulations, no fancy escort vehicles but just the same one armored vehicle but here we are too thick.
