An investigation is underway into more than 50 vehicle testing.

Governmnet’s investigation is based on the 20,00 fraudulent roadworthy certificates that have been issued.

The probe was triggered by a dossier given to Minister of Transport S'bu Ndebele three weeks ago by a group of whistle-blowers from the National Vehicle Testing Association and the National Traffic Information System (eNatis).

It has been reported that some of the death traps unroadworthy vehicles account for 80% of all road accidents each year.

Statistics released by the Road Traffic Management Corporation (RTMC) showed that 170 people had died in road accidents since December 1st.
