A bus crash near Masvingo killed four people on Monday. Forty others suffered injuries during the accident on the highway to Mbalabala. The Govasberg bus driver tried to overtake a slow-moving tractor. Oncoming traffic forced the driver to quickly return to his lane. He crashed directly into the tractor and its trailer.
Police spokesman Paul Nyathi confirmed the deadly accident occurred around 11 AM. Photos from the scene show the tractor completely overturned with wheels pointing upward. The bus left the road and stopped between trees after the collision. Survivors told police the bus driver had been speeding before the crash. The driver was traveling from Gweru when the accident happened.
