Five people have died on the spot in a head on deadly collision involving a saloon car and a truck with a Mozambican registration number at Mtendere, Linthipe 3 in Dedza.

Manda identified the other three deceased as Lindiwe Mhone, 27, who was driving the Toyota Passo car and hails from Mzimba, Chikondi Ngulinga and Steve Phiri.
All the deceased wee from the small car, Manda said.
He said the accident happened when Lindiwe was overtaking a truck just to meet the Mozambican registered truck before the overtaking was over.
The Road Traffic and Safety Department has designated December 1 and January 3 as road safety month in view of the festive season.

That is where personal identity cards are of paramount importance. Nanga anthu adzichita kumakafufuza Ku mortuary zowona.
I edge all drivers to go for defensive driving and at least 2 years of driving experience before you start driving long distances like BT to LL.
There are three golden rules to avoiding road accidents; drive a car which is fit on the road, be skilled and smart on the road and don’t drive under any influence be it alcohol, excitement, sadness,any drug,fatigue and many more.
