The Democratic Alliance has called for an explanation regarding the near collapse of the Administrative Adjudication of Road Traffic Offences Act. 

DA Premier Candidate for Gauteng Mmusi Maimane said while government continues with its stubborn campaign to implement e-tolling, documents leaked reveal that government neither has the means nor the systems in place to implement the R10 billion project. 

Maimane said that they hold the view that e-tolls is failing the people of the province.

“Certainly it failed in Pretoria, it failed in Tswane and it was the same system that that was going to be used for tolling and in our view it is not going to work,” added Maimane.

He also said that while revenue is not being collected it is very clear that traffic is going to be affected from the perspective that traffic enforcers cannot be able to implement traffic rules.
