A South Africa-bound haulage truck transporting coal from Hwange overturned early this morning at the 67km peg along the Bulawayo-Plumtree highway. The incident has caused significant disruption on the busy route.
Preliminary reports suggest that the accident occurred due to the driver potentially dozing off while at the wheel. The driver, who has not yet been identified, sustained non-life-threatening injuries and has been transported to a hospital in Bulawayo for medical attention.
Authorities are currently working to clear the wreckage from the scene, which is obstructing traffic on the heavily traveled highway. The removal of the overturned truck and the coal spillage is expected to take some time, and motorists are advised to expect delays and seek alternative routes if possible.
The accident highlights ongoing concerns about road safety and driver fatigue, especially on major transport routes. Further details regarding the cause of the accident and any potential contributing factors will likely emerge as investigations continue.
