# The Johannesburg Metropolitan Police Department says the N12 near the Comaro Road off-ramp has been reopened to traffic. This comes after a gas tanker was stationary westbound when a light motor vehicle collided with the rear of the tanker, triggering a fire yesterday. The driver of the light motor vehicle died on the scene. JMPD spokesperson, Xolani Fihla, says the decanting of the remaining gas from the damaged tanker into a secondary tanker and mopping operations took several hours:
