Durban - A motorist died and six people were injured in a street race in Chatsworth on Friday night, said rescue workers and police.
Two friends were racing in opposite directions on the Higginson Highway at 21:00, said ER24 and Bayview police.
Rescue workers arrived at the scene to find both cars damaged, but a distance from each other.
It was not known whether the vehicles collided with each other or if a third vehicle was involved.
The driver of one of the cars, in his late-20s, died in the crash. Six passengers in both vehicles were seriously injured.
In a second incident a short while later on the M4, a man in his mid-20s died, said ER24 spokesperson Derrick Banks.
