Traffic officials were out in full force on Friday.

The traffic officials pulled over minibus taxi drivers to examine the licenses of the drivers and operators.

This was a random check by traffic officials to clamp down on illegal operations.

The clamp down was mainly aimed at vehicles parked near Western Boulevard in Green Point.

Many drivers were caught without their licences and also had outstanding fines.

Traffic spokesperson Kevin Jacobs said “We are also checking the roadworthiness of taxi operators to ensure the safety of commuters”.

Traffic officials have stated that more taxi operation clamp downs will be conducted throughout the year.
