The Advertiser recently ran an article where Boksburg Magistrate’s Court senior public prosecutor, advocate Henk Strydom, reminded motorists to adhere to the prescribed speed limits.
This follows the police’s application to renew authorisation for deployment of mobile speed cameras in Boksburg being approved.
Strydom said to the Advertiser he has discovered there is an absolute blatant disregard for any speed signs in Boksburg, and he based this on the amount of people who are approaching his office with no admissions of guilt on camera prosecution.
In light of his warnings, a video has now emerged that was posted on Twitter by crime activist Yusuf Abramjee.
It shows a motorist doing 322km/h on the R21 on the East Rand.

The video has gone viral and has evoked calls for law enforcement to act. The video appears to have been filmed by a passenger from the car.
