Western Cape
Transport MEC Robin Carlisle has revealed that the province’s festive season
road death toll has risen to around 130.
Carlisle said they have marked change in the
nature of fatal road accidents.
He said there
are fewer deadly collisions involving public transport vehicles.
The MEC said this indicates there are more deadly incidents where cars are involved.
Carlisle said
that during December the high fatalities are not pedestrians or public
transport but have in fact been ordinary motor cars and their passengers so of
the 130 people that are dead, 76 were drivers and passengers.
Carlisle adds
that this points out to irresponsible driving and people looking for an early
end to their own lives and that of other people.
