Limpopo police say an accident outside Modimolle that involved Carl Pistorius -- the older brother of murder-accused paralympian Oscar Pistorius -- is being investigated.
Spokesperson, Brigadier Hangwani Mulaudzi says they have opened a case of reckless or negligent driving and police and the Limpopo traffic department are investigating.
He says the information will be collated into a centralised docket that will be sent to the director of public prosecutions for a decision.
Paramedics had to use the jaws-of-life to free Carl Pistorius after his car collided head-on with another car on Friday evening.
On Saturday, the Pistorius family said Carl was out of danger after the accident.
His uncle Arnold Pistorius says in a statement that Carl's vehicle was hit head-on by another car that had swerved from the opposite side of the N1 highway into oncoming traffic just outside Modimolle in Limpopo.
