On a bright Wednesday afternoon, a minibus taxi on Cape Town’s steep and narrow Kloof Nek Road tried to overtake a scooter but lost control, crashing into a truck and a car. The accident caused chaos and injured eight people, highlighting how dangerous this busy, twisty road has become. With old road designs, heavy traffic, and fastmoving vehicles like scooters and taxis, locals worry that more crashes will happen unless safety measures improve. The city now faces tough questions about how to keep its busy streets safe while moving forward.
