Another Vleiberg Road level crossing accident - same place?

[Kevin Wilson-Smith]

I see as per SABC TV there has been another accident.

This occurred on the Vlaeberg road near Stellenbosch on Monday.

Was it at the same place as the previous accident here?

Apparently 4 people were killed in a white VW Polo when a train hit their vehicle on Monday afternoon.

The SABC said emergency services staff said the accident was the result of the Polo driver's failure to stop for the train.

Was on scene. Correct.

Does the crossing require work, or are the drivers just slack?

[Dylan Knott]

Always been a problem this one. Can't say for sure where the fault lies.
