Great News. As I was reading this on my phone yesterday evening, having just gotten home somewhat earlier than normal I saw no less than 10 in a space of 2 minutes come roaring along Eden Rd, across Trill and along to Bowden Rd having come of the Main Road at Roman road.
Another area of concern for me is the Wesley, Station, Eden intersection. I have been involved in an accident when coming out of Wesley onto Station Road. There was a car coming the wrong way down Station Road. Last night again at around 16h40 i was coming up station road and once again there was a car coming down station road! at the same time there was a 3rd car trying the illegal wriggle from Eden into Wesley! Once again, very nearly an accident! Can a system of cameras around the hotspot areas to catch offenders license plates or at the very least a random placing of traffic officials during peak time traffic? It is not just the taxis that annoy me, but the flagrant disregard shown by motorists in general in Obz. I am sad to point out that there are many obz residents who are amongst the offenders. Safe driving and Keep up the great work!
