Johannesburg - Covid-19 pandemic has disrupted the government’s bold plan to kickstart the traffic points demerit system by June 1, the Transport Department has said.
Once implemented, Aarto would introduce a system intended to eventually cancel driving licences of habitual breakers of road laws. “The Covid-19 and the lockdown alert levels have had a negative impact on the elements of the traffic management and the availability of staff - which has a bearing on Aarto,” departmental spokesperson Colleen Msibi said.
Dembovsky will argue in court that it was improper of Aarto to presume guilt of motorists without hearing their defence.
