PrelimInfo mini trailer tanker explosion on the N1 North after Malibongwe Drive.
All lanes are closed due to the tanker explosion (traffic diverted at Malibongwe Dr Off-ramp).
Local authorities are currently on the scene of the explosion for assistance.
[ It was a “mini tanker” trailer pulled by a bakkie. The tanker dislodged, flipped onto N1 north, exploded
NOT A GAS TANKER like some say.
Seems very few if any legally compliant dangerous goods placards are displayed on vehicle combinations.
Tanker obviously destroyed]
