This is the third letter I have written regarding the drivers who fail to stop at stop streets in Witpoortjie.
It can be seen how drivers ignore the Road Act. In the incident on Trezona Avenue on 8 June, no one died.

I say, when you renew your driver’s licence, you should have to redo your licence exam and only then do you get a new licence!
