At least 77 people were injured, five of them critically, after two buses collided at the entrance to a South African university on Tuesday, police and transport authorities said. One of the buses was a university vehicle ferrying students between campuses at the University of Johannesburg. The other was a city bus.
Metro Bus spokesperson Goodwill Shiburi said that five people suffered critical injuries in the crash, and all 77 of the injured were hospitalised. Both drivers were among those taken to the hospital, he said.
In the aftermath, one of the buses lay on its side after crashing through a fence at an entrance to the university. The accident happened around 7 am, authorities said. Johannesburg Metropolitan Police Department spokesperson Xolani Fihla said a case of negligent driving would be opened by police considering “the severity and seriousness” of the crash. The cause of the crash was not yet known, Fihla said.
