The City of Cape Town’s Traffic services held Operation Reclaim on Thursday morning at the intersection of Koeberg Road and Boundary Road, Rugby.

To arrest rebellious motorists who fail to appear in Court, 122 check points have been held so far this year, which uses the licence plate recognition system (LPR).

According to an issued press release, spokesperson for the City’s traffic services, Inez Lackay, said that on Thursday, nine people were arrested on 48 outstanding warrants. She said that one motorist was arrested on 26 warrants and appeared in the municipal court.

“Motorists are urged to ensure that when they receive a notice to appear in Court, they should pay their fines either on or before the stipulated dates to avoid being summoned.

When they fail to appear in Court on the dates specified, they run the risk of being found in contempt of Court. Warrants are not only executed during our check points, but we also visit your homes and places of work”, said Lackay.
