There’ve been no reported injuries. JMPD spokesperson Wayne Minnaar has advised motorists to avoid that part of the highway until the accident scene has been cleared.
“A truck which was drawing a trailer transporting cows, four of the cows have been regrouped but two cows have ran off down the embankment. There is also a double cab involved in the accident and obstructing the road, M1 north and south, motorists are requested to look out for the accident scene.”
