The driver was proceeding from George
towards Oudtshoorn and a KUDU suddenly sprang from the bush (afterwards we were
able to find its tracks and the actual launch spot) and jumped right before the
car. It was killed on impact.
The lucky driver above and poor mangled Kudu below
Not only did it hit his car, it smashed the windscreen, tore a section of the
roof away and flew right through the car, blowing open the rear hatch
The driver ducked instinctively as it happened and was able to avoid most of
the carnage. He also held tightly onto the steering wheel, suffering only slight
injury to his one hand and a whack to the face from the airbag. When he lifted
his head he was on the gravel on the ‘wrong side of the road’ where he was able
to stop the car without losing control.
The KUDU went right through the windscreen, leaving an awful mess on the way.
The impact blew the hatchback open as the KUDU left through the back of the car…
Lucky there were no other passengers or they might have been hurt or covered in crap & guts
The KUDU left some of his lunch in the boot.
