Ons het vas geslaap toe die slag ons wakkerruk. Dit was net na middernag op Saterdagoggend toe ons \u2013 nog deurmekaar \u2013 dadelik na buite hardloop. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
So vertel Michelle Klerck na \u2018n vierde voertuig sedert 2016 om 12:35 deur hul huis se grensmuur geploeg het. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cHierdie keer is ek net dankbaar dat niemand in of deur die huis is nie\u201d, s\u00ea sy. Die vorige keer het \u2018n vrou die motorhuis getref na sy oor \u2018n le\u00eb erf, skrams verby \u2018n elektri-siteitkas deur die muur is (pas herstel van die vorige ongeluk). Vensters was aan skerwe met krake in die muur. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Die huis op die hoek van Noorsekloof- en Seetuinweg is \u2018n \u2018teiken\u2019 vir spoedvrate. Maar Wayne en Michelle is vasbeslote om die jaagduiwels in Noorsekloofstraat te stop v\u00f3\u00f3r iemand sterf. \u201cOns grootste vrees is om \u2018n jongmens se lyk op ons drumpel te vind.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cDie probleem is spoed. Daar is dikwels dronkbestuur by betrokke. \u2018n Effense draai in die pad is nie die probleem nie \u2013 die gejagery is.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cDit kan bloot nie so voortgaan nie. Kinders kon dood gewees het. Ons dring aan op \u2018n oplossing van die Kouga Munisipaliteit om effektiewe spoedvermindering toe te pas\u201d, s\u00ea Michelle, die gewoonlik vrolike eienaar van die kleurvolle winkel, Michelle K, langs die Spar in Da Gama-weg.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n Jongste voorval<\/b>\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In die jongste voorval het twee jongmanne, matrieks in die Ho\u00ebrskool Nico Malan op Humansdorp, met \u2018n wit Ford Ranger van onder af in Noorsekloof gekom, oor die oop erf langs die Klerck-huis geploeg.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Michelle s\u00ea dat die weerkaatsborde wat hulle as waarskuwing aangebring het, is deur die slag \u201cuitgehaal\u201d. \u201cDie voertuig het twee groot rotse laat spat, is deur die grensmuur en het teen ons palmboom tot stilstand gekom. As boom nie daar was nie, sou skade veel erger gewees het. Dan is die muur en hek voor die huis ook nou aan flarde.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Die bestuurder, Heinrich Rudloff, het glo dadelik die hasepad gekies. Passasier Dylan Gush is deur die buurman gekeer, maar nadat Michelle met hom gepraat het \u2013 net toe sy skryfgoed vir \u2018n \u2018\u2019verklaring\u2019\u2019 gaan haal \u2013 het hy ook laat spaander.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Volgens Michelle het hulle \u2018n selfoon in die voertuig gevind, en so die verantwoordelikes opgespoor. \u201cOns moes ure in die yskoue staan voor hulle toestemming kon kry om die motor te laat wegsleep\u201d, s\u00ea sy onthuts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Die Klercks ervaar persoonlike trauma, sukkel om te slaap want elke keer as \u2018n motor in die straat afjaag, is hulle bevrees dit gaan weer in hul erf of huis eindig. \u201cDaar is soveel drama, verduidelikings, organisering, finansi\u00eble implikasies, vrees vir die volgende roekelose bestuurder, versekeringsake \u2013 dit is aaklig!\u201d, verduidelik Michelle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cVoorverlede jaar het ons \u2018n jong meisie bewusteloos gevind. Toe nog een verlede jaar. Ons is so verlig as ons besef nie een is dood nie \u2013 maar dan skop die skok en reaksie by ons in. In die meeste gevalle is dronkbestuur \u2018n oorsaak. En oor die algemeen is daar nie werklik berou oor wat hulle aangevang het nie, en min neem verantwoordelikheid.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Michelle vertel dat hierdie hulle droomhuis is waarvoor hulle baie hard gewerk het, tyd en moeite aan bestee het. \u201cOns weier om te trek of die soort bestuurders bepaal wat met \u00f3ns gebeur.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n Petisie<\/b>\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Die Klercks het hulle na sosiale media gewend om \u2018n be-roep op inwoners te maak om \u2018n dringende petisie te te-ken.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cOns het \u2018n enorme spoedstryd in Noorsekloof. By drie van die vier botsings teen ons huis was jongmense betrokke. Hulle het die dood net deur genade vrygespring. Motors is elke keer op \u2018n aaklige wyse afgeskryf, en ons woning het telkens strukturele en ander skade gekry.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Michelle s\u00ea: \u201cOns poog al \u2018n jaar lank om spoedwalle aangebring te kry. In plek daarvan het ons nikswerd dreunstawe gekry. Ons vra inwoners om die petisie te teken voor iemand sterf.\u201d Die Klercks het self bykomende ligte en weerkaatsstroke aangebring.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Wyle Kouga burgemeester, Elza van Lingen, het nog verlede jaar die ongelukstoneel besoek. Die mening was dat die straat een van die hoof toegangspaaie in die dorp is wat deur noodvoertuie gebruik word \u2013 wat metodes vir snelheidsbeperkings inkort.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
