Absolutely heartbreaking, those poor families.
This is sad I am crying 😭 for those kids may their soul rest in peace, very painful 😭💔
20 children in a taxi? When does this stop. We need school buses. This is so sad, such a loss of young life. Sympathy to the family.
Even if they were 15, it could the the same, the ranger would still going to hit the school transport,
Because driving licences are sold over the counter in SA.
Omw how tragic 😭😭😭😭 my sincere condolences to respective families. God be with you in this difficult time🙏🙏🙏🙏

Bathong the bakkie driver rear ended a taxi which is so big, why?
He must be charged with murder he is reckless. I know everyone will be blaming the taxi driver from lack of knowledge and short sightedness
Satan is very dangerous and people think he doesn't exist. Only Jesus can save us. May thier souls rest in peace

This is devastating, Condolences to all the families this is Truly heart breaking. These Taxi drivers need to stop packing people specially innocent little children in the Taxi like Sardines just to make money its sickening. That said the blame also needs to be placed on the Parents. It is your Job as a Parent to ensure your childs safety, I know its expensive and not everyone has the money but whwn it comes to your child you cant skimp. If the Transport doesnt look good or safe or roadworthy dont put your most precious cargo on it. Sadly once something like this happens its to late. And no amount of money you saved using that Transport can bring your child back. Parent's really need to be more responsible aswell. Our Goverment also needs to stop taking money that belongs to all South Africans and put it to better us. They should provide Those Buses to Transport children safely to and from school no matter what area.
Oh God intervene😢
😭😭😭
So sorry MT R I P
This is so painful 😭😭 esh God 😭
Nkosi sikelela i Africa 😢😢💔💔💔💔💔💔
I'll bet speed played a role in this accident
Condolences to all the families but asking for school bus won't make a different if you are a reckless driver you are a reckless driver we see accident everyday the are ppl who don't care about a life yabanye abantu taxi you find thm buses you find thm its only God who will fight for us imimoya emibi
Loud music which makes impossible to hear any warning of some sort,hooter. New South Africa jerrrr has brought strange things.
😭😭😭😭😭🙏🙏🙏
Government we blame him 😢
No,no,no!! This is too shocking for words!! 😢😢😢
Continue selling driving licences, you are not going to stop crying dear South africans. Road canage is a fashionable thing, and no political leader is prepared to solve the problem, instead they sell driving licences
If Sadtu members were doing their work in the township schools, there wouldn't be accidents like these. Now parents are forced to transport their children to towns to be taught by their white teachers. How many of these kinds of accidents are going to happen? By the way Sadtu=Cosatu, and Cosatu is ANC. Domino effect.
