A TANKER transporting milk crashed into the back of another truck driving in the same direction on the N3 north-bound near Camperdown in KwaZulu-Natal, ER24 paramedics saidyesterday.

The tanker was found in the centre median and the other smaller truck in the emergency lane of the north-bound carriageway.

"The driver of the tanker was trapped in his truck and had to be stabilised before being taken to hospital," paramedics said.

The occupants of the other truck sustained minor injuries during the incident.
