Gauteng Traffic police have raised concern about the number of young people being arrested for drunken driving. About 100Spokesperson Sello Manemare says the majority of those arrested are between the ages of 19 and 35. “We have major issues with drunken drivers, over 100 people have been arrested for drunken driving, driving under the influence of alcohol. Remember that’s a criminal offense and it doesn’t need us to issue a citation. It is direct arrested, and you have been sentenced to direct imprisonment for up to 7 years without the option of a fine. Especially the young people, we found that they were the most driving under the influence.
Let them get drunk, they have got rights mos🤣👋
Lol only 100? What a joke
Concern is where it ends. If you're serious amend the laws to include compulsory jail terms and banning them from driving for at least a year.
