Transport Minister Sibusiso Ndebele has instructed law enforcement agencies to stop and check every bus and taxi on South Africa’s roads with immediate effect.
At least 76 people have been killed this month in eight separate public transport vehicle crashes.
Accidents have been rife in the Eastern Cape, Gauteng, the Western Cape, KwaZulu-Natal, the Free State and Mpumalanga.
Ndebele says the situation is out of hand and operators can expect tough action.
