The Mangaung Metro Municipality is hard at work to uproot a culture of deliberate disregard of the rule of law by motorists.
The issuing of fines for impounded vehicles has reportedly generated a significant revenue of about R12,6 million.
According to Gregory Nthatisi, executive mayor, the revenue collected is for the past two years. He revealed this during the presentation of the metro’s budget on 27 May.
On Wednesday, 4 June, a traffic officer was photographed while on patrol, writing out a fine to a motorist who had parked in a prohibited zone in First Avenue, attesting to the continuous efforts in enforcing the law in the city.
