Four Injured in Head-On Collision on Great North Road

Four people have sustained injuries following a road traffic accident that occurred this morning on the Great North Road near Yash Sciences, about 10 kilometres before Kafue Town.

Deputy Public Relations Officer Chipo Kaitisha said the accident involved a Toyota Noah driven by 43-year-old Epron Zimba of Kafue and a Toyota Dyna light truck belonging to Platinum Carriers, driven by 35-year-old Eugene Nyeleti of John Laing Compound in Lusaka.

She said both vehicles veered off the road to the right side and overturned.

  According to  kaitisha,  Zimba sustained general body pains, while Nyeleti suffered a cut on the left hand, facial bruises, and general body pains.

She told the media that two passengers aboard the Toyota Noah also sustained slight injuries.

added that all four injured persons were treated and later discharged from Kafue District General Hospital.

She has urged motorists to strictly observe traffic regulations and keep to their proper lanes at all times.
