The ZRP reports the death of 8 people in a fatal RTA which occurred at the 168km peg along Harare-Bulawayo Road between 12 midnight and 1 am when a ZUPCO bus had a collision with a tanker.

Zim should ban all trucks and buses moving on main roads between 9.00pm to 6.00am. Too much drinking and driving that time of night, people (including drivers) should be at home in bed sleeping.
Yours appears pointless intellectual whey
