Two motorists were arrested in separate incidents for outstanding warrants to the value of R176 000 during the City of Cape Town’s Traffic Service operations on Tuesday morning.
PICTURE: PixabayIn the first incident, a 44-year-old man was arrested in
Mitchells Plain for 49 outstanding warrants valued at R111 300.
Traffic services spokesperson, Maxine Bezuidenhout, says officers
pulled over a vehicle on Highlands Drive at approximately 06:00, and the driver
was subsequently arrested.
Bezuidenhout explained that an hour later, at the N1 and
Sable Road, officers pulled over a driver who had an outdated public driving
permit.
‘’When they did a further check, they discovered he has 20
outstanding warrants valued at R64 700. The 30-year-old tried making a run for
it, but he was apprehended after a short chase.’’
