Western Cape Transport and Public Works MEC Robin Carlisle has called for a ten-kilometer-per-hour decrease in the speed limit in the province.
This would mean the top speed allowed on provincial highways would be 110-kilometres-per-hour.
The speed limits on roads near shops, schools and other areas with a high pedestrian concentration could also be lowered to forty or even thirty-kilometres-per-hour.
Over 50 percent of deaths on the provinces roads are pedestrians.
