Zimbabwe police say as many as 17 people are feared dead after a bus went up in flames after colliding with a truck.

Police spokeswoman Charity Charamba said today that more than 40 other people suffered serious injuries.

She says people were trapped in the bus and died before help could arrive.

Charamba says the bus was travelling to neighbouring South Africa from the capital, Harare last night.

Road accidents are common in Zimbabwe, with many attributed to bad roads and speeding.
