When ER24 paramedics arrived on scene, they found that a bus had left the road and had come to rest in a nearby vineyard. Some of the occupants were found sitting outside while two patients were found sitting inside the bus.
On assessment, paramedics found that 15 people had sustained injuries ranging from minor to moderate. Fortunately no-one had sustained any serious injuries.
Paramedics treated the patients on scene and thereafter transported them to Mediclinic Paarl and Paarl Hospital for further observations.
It is understood that the bus was transporting the occupants to work when the collision occurred.
The cause of the collision is not yet known but local authorities were on scene for further investigations.
