AARTO: What a conundrum

AARTO Review I am quite impressed that AARTO is trying to bring in stricter measures, but I do not know how these will be implemented as our roads’ infrastructure is so defective. Often drivers cannot see the lanes in which they are driving, there are potholes everywhere and traffic lights often do not function. It is as if COJ uses very bad, cheap paint as the areas that are re-painted are often hardly visible 3 months down the line. When last have we seen yellow lines being painted? I wonder if people even know that one cannot park on yellow lines. Frequently I see people just parking in the middle of the road to make a call with their hazard lights on. No evidence of the yellow lines that were there before. And, why are there these strict measures for most tax paying drivers but the mini-bus taxis seem exempt from all rules and regulations? How is this fair? Is this Animal Farm where some are more equal than others? How can laws be imposed when a huge sector of the community is exempt in terms of these rules and laws? I cannot see how AARTO can enforce these measures if everyone cannot be treated EQUALLY. I can see many issues being contested in court unless ALL are treated equally and the infrastructure supports the rule of law. R.R-Taylor. [email protected]
