A request has been put forth by ANC Member of Parliament Peter Hendricks, to allow cash-strapped motorists to be able to obtain a motorcycle licence quicker than usual.
The City has reported that motorcycle applications have increased by more than 50%
However the traffic department spokesperson Merle Lourens said the traffic department has no view whether or not it is a good idea, as a motorcycle’s controls are a lot different to a car.
“The controls for a motorcycle, is way more different to that of a car or a truck. The test is also different, whoever has been driving for 20 years in a car, will not be able to do the test.”
