“The decisions we make while on the roads affect how our road stories unfold.
As responsible citizens, we must appreciate that how we conduct ourselves impacts the lives of other fellow road users.
The decision to act or not to act within the rules of the road has a chain reaction which has a bearing on people’s lives, their families, dependents, and the economy

“As we look ahead to the Easter weekend and beyond, we encourage all road users to take responsibility and commit themselves to safe road practices,” says RAF Chief Marketing Officer, Ms Phumelela Dhlomo.
Meanwhile, the RAF Call Centre’s hours have been extended to 18.00 until April 13 to deal with any additional queries.
“Claimants will still be able to call during office hours or leave a message after hours or on holidays. These calls will be returned on the next working day,”adds Dhlomo.
