Pictures: Bulawayo Road accident

Three people- among them two police officers- escaped death by a hair’s breadth when a Toyota Levin sedan they were travelling was hit by a long-distance bus at the intersection of the Bulawayo and Tynwald Roads, a few kilometres from the Harare City centre.

The bus was travelling from Gokwe to Harare and was carrying 35 passengers who also escaped unhurt.

Witnesses said the bus driver  was trying to avoid collision with  a haulage that was turning into Bulawayo Road when he lost control of the bus and ploughed through the road verges before hitting the sedan from its passenger’s side
