Pretoria - Driving in and out of Pretoria North via the Poort has become a daily nightmare for motorists and commuters alike. This is detailed in a petition started by frustrated motorist Adele Malan, which has already garnered more than 1000 signatures.
Malan said not only were the never-ending roadworks a headache, but the lawlessness, inconsiderate driving of mostly taxis which has overflown to other regular road users was causing a huge frustration. “A morning commute that should take about 10 minutes in peak traffic to get out of Pretoria North via the Poort now takes about 20 to 30 minutes on a good day. The same goes for the afternoon commuting.”
She said while regular commuters waited in line to fetch their children from school and get to work on time, the taxi drivers had little to no respect for any other road user.
