Die dood van twee studente van die Universiteit Stellenbosch op Vrydag 23 Augustus het die kollig weer eens op die berugte kruising tussen die Weskuspad (R27) en die Vredenburg-Hopefieldpad (R45) laat val.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n Weslander<\/i> berig bykans jaarliks oor mense wat by die gevaarlike oorgang in motorongelukke sterf en verskeie kere per jaar oor mense wat beserings daar in motorongelukke opdoen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In die jongste voorval is Dylan Muller (19) van Kenilworth, Kaapstad, op Vrydag 23 Augustus op slag dood toe die Suzuki Swift wat hy bestuur het in \u2019n vragmotor vasgery het. Hy en sy meisie, Ashley du Toit (21) van die Paarl, was net n\u00e1 20:00 onderweg na Paternoster waar hulle die naweek saam met familie sou deurbring.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Kapt. Tania Helfrich, Weskus-polisiewoordvoerder, het ges\u00ea die vragmotor het van Velddrif se rigting af gekom en die Suzuki Swift uit die rigting van Hopefield waar hulle petrol ingegooi het.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Du Toit se ma, Alison du Toit, het aan Weslander<\/i> se susterskoerant Paarl Post<\/i> ges\u00ea Ashley was \u2019n derdejaar bedryfsielkundestudent en Muller, een van \u2019n tweeling, \u2019n eerstejaar in rekenaarwetenskap.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Volgens Helfrich het die motor die vragmotor van die kant af getref en tussen die kopstuk en sleepwa beland.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Elowayne Gouws van West Coast Medical Rescue (WCMR) het ges\u00ea Metro EMS moes die oorledenes met hidrouliese toerusting uit die motorwrak sny.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Du Toit se ma het aan Paarl Post <\/span>ges\u00ea sy was reeds in Paternoster waar die oorledenes by hulle sou aansluit vir die naweek. Sy het n\u00e1 \u2019n oproep oor die ongeluk dadelik na die ongelukstoneel gery. Hier kon sy darem \u2019n paar woorde met haar dogter gesels voordat personeel van WCMR haar onder gevorderde lewensondersteunende sorg na die hospitaal gejaag het, waar sy gestabiliseer is.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Ashley se hart het egter gaan staan omdat sy te veel bloed verloor het. Dokters het 45 minute lank vergeefs probeer om haar by te bring.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Helfrich het bevestig dat die Vredenburg-polisie \u2019n saak van strafbare manslag ondersoek.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Alison het ook aan Paarl Post<\/i> ges\u00ea haar dogter was vurig, selfversekerd, eiesinnig, onverskonend, toegewyd en lief vir lag. Sy het in 2020 aan die Ho\u00ebr Meisieskool Paarl gematrikuleer en was \u2019n ywerige perderuiter wat op nasionale vlak deelgeneem het. Sy het ook ges\u00ea die oorledenes het mekaar in November verlede jaar by \u2019n dansplek in Stellenbosch ontmoet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Dylan het aan die Ho\u00ebrskool Fairmont gematrikuleer. Hulle het vandeesweek aan hom as die kaptein van die waterpolo- en sokker-eerstespanne hulde gebring op Facebook. Hy word beskryf as \u201c\u2019n geliefde lid van die Fairmont High School-familie, bekend vir sy blink glimlag, sterk leierskap en vriendelikheid teenoor ander\u201d. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Sy suster, Jade (19), het volgens Netwerk24<\/span> haar ma, Nicola Muller, met die doodstyding gebel. Dylan het voor die naweek vir sy ma ges\u00ea hy moet eintlik nie Paternoster toe gaan nie en eerder studeer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Nicola het ook ges\u00ea Dylan was baie lief vir Ashleigh, en dat sy amper bly is hulle het saam gegaan, want dit laat haar voel hulle is nou ook saam.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Ashley word die naweek in Suider-Paarl begrawe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \n Weslander<\/i> het in April vanjaar berig oor Max Keller (71), \u2019n toeris van Switserland, wat ook by di\u00e9 oorgang gesterf het. Hy het ook uit Hopefield se rigting gekom en voor \u2019n aankomende bakkie wat na Velddrif onderweg was, beland. Sy vrou, Getrude (68), is ernstig in die ongeluk beseer, maar kon n\u00e1 haar herstel na Switserland terugkeer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Van die opskrifte oor die jare oor ongelukke by die spesifieke oorgang lui
