Heavy winds cause head-on collision on B2 road

A fatal head-on collision between a single-cab pick-up and a truck occurred on Tuesday morning on the B2 road outside Arandis.

This is according to Namibian Police Force spokesperson Kauna Shikwambi in an incident report on Tuesday, stating that the accident occurred due to restricted visibility caused by the current windy weather conditions across the country.

One person, the driver of the pick-up died in the accident.

“It is still dangerous for the emergency officers to work in the current heavy and strong winds,” she said.

The police therefore advised all motorists to exercise caution or delay driving where possible, because of the heavy winds experienced in most parts of the country.
