Transport Minister Fikile Mbalula says there has been a spike in. Seventeen motor vehicle crashes were recorded this year, compared to seven over the same period in 2020.
The R80 Mabopane highway was jam-packed as law enforcement agencies embarked on a campaign drive to promote safer road usage. “Statistics have revealed that people who died on our roads this year were passengers at 35% followed by pedestrians at 34% – drivers at 26% and motorcyclists at 1% and bicycle riders at 1%. The vehicle types that had the most contribution to fatal crashes were minibusses. light delivery vehicles and trucks. Most fatal crashes happen during the early hours of the morning and early evening,” says Mbalula.
Drinking and driving must be one of the main reasons for such a rise.
