MOTORISTS braved the rain, wind and frosty conditions in a last ditch effort to avoid fines for expired licence discs.Motorists who have not taken advantage of the grace period would be fined R500 and the vehicles would be deemed unlicensed. On top of the fine you would also be slapped with penalties for late payment.-Discs that expired on June 30, payment and renewal had to be completed by July 21.

Daniels said: “I have been here for an hour and a half already and there is a very long queue. I have asked the security how long it will take us to get to the tellers but no one can tell us.” Deputy mayor and mayco member for finance, Ian Neilson, said: “Customers who could not renew their licences due to lockdown, but who needed to renew their licences before March 26 when the lockdown was implemented but failed to do so, will unfortunately have to pay penalties. These fines cannot be written off as it is not a decision the city can make.

“Please visit offices early in the day or make use of online services where possible. Social distancing must please be adhered to when visiting our customer office,” he added.
