Cape Town - Seven people, including two children, died when a minibus collided with a car carrier near Touwsriver, in the Western Cape, on Saturday morning, SABC reported.
Another nine people were injured when the minibus slammed into the back of the car carrier, which was stopped at the side of the N1 so the driver could secure one of the cars.
The minibus had been on its way from Cape Town to Beaufort-West, emergency services spokesperson Shaheem de Vries told the broadcaster.

CAPE TOWN PRIDE FESTIVAL 2007
Cape Town PRIDE 2007 event launches in February this year with the theme Carnival of Love. The mother city will be filled with colour and flamboyance as the entire lesbian, gay, bisexual, trans-gendered and intersexed (LGBTI) community descends upon the city for 11 days of entertainment, education and enjoyment.
The festival runs from the 15 th February until the 25 th February 2007 with over 35 events planned for this year’s festival calendar.
“Cape Town PRIDE has grown rapidly since its first inception in 2001. In 2006 an estimated 10, 000 people participated in a variety of events and Cape Town PRIDE 2007 promises to be better than ever with many new events on the cards all aimed at empowering and inspiring but always entertaining,” enthuses Ian Mc Mahon, Cape Town PRIDE Chairman.
Cape Town PRIDE has indeed become the premier event on the Mother City’s Pink social calendar. The festival serves as an opportunity to celebrate the country’s great constitution with characteristic flair and flamboyance and to make a unique contribution to promoting diversity and tolerance in Cape Town.
“We plan to grow Cape Town PRIDE until it reaches the same magnitude of the Sydney Lesbian and Gay Mardi Gras, one of the biggest in the world, and we plan to do this by 2011. We have a dedicated team that works all year round to bring the LGBTI and straight community 11 days of absolute fun. Our objective of course, is too raise funds for our beneficiary, the Pride Shelter Trust, but also to communicate peace, respect, love and understanding through our culture that is: FABULOUSLY GAY,” says Ian.
On the schedule for 2007
The 2007 theme ‘Carnival of Love’ consists of over 35 events from the long standing and ever popular PRIDE Red Party to the fabulous Street Parade and Party which promise to be larger than life as Cape Town PRIDE has partnered with International UK promoters, Global Underground and MTV Base.
Also on the calendar next year are two grandee balls, the PRIDE Candy Glam Ball (it’s a Pink Tie affair) to be held on Friday 16 February and the PRIDE Allsorts Benefit Ball on Sunday 25 February.
On Broadway will be hosting PRIDE’s diva event ‘Celebrate with the Goddesses of Love’ on the 21 February. For the arty and intellectual types, the PRIDE book affair will be hosted by Justice Edwin Cameron and will take place on the 18 February as well as the PRIDE art exhibition ‘Celebration of Love’ from February 19 – 23.
The PRIDE Seminar series is being held over four evenings with separate panel discussions on relevant LGBTI issues such as gay marriages, relationship issues, gay families and positive imagery. Speakers such as Justice Edwin Cameron and Zackie Achmat have confirmed attendance.
For the more adventurous and rugged types, there’s the PRIDE Sports Day on the 25 February and the PRIDE Golf Day on the 19 February as well as the popular PRIDE Race Day, this year titled ‘Mink and Manure’ and sponsored by Investec Private Bank.
What differentiates Cape Town PRIDE 2007 from prior years is that the PRIDE Carnival of Love Parade will take place at the beginning of the festival on Saturday, 17 February, rather than ending off the festival. The parade guarantees to inspire, thrill and bring out the hedonist in participants as they parade through the streets of Cape Town. This rounds of in the street faire with top SA talent in an all-afternoon concert.
