“However, with stats showing that the majority of crashes recorded on the route in 2022, being due to driver ineptitude and negligence, many of which could be avoided, N3 appeals to motorists not to become another statistic,” Dhoogra said.
She has urged motorists to ensure that their vehicles are roadworthy, to refrain from speeding and maintain a safe following distances from other vehicles.Minister of Health Dr Joe Phaahla said emergency personnel in all provinces have contingency plans in place, “which are aligned with Arrive Alive and the Road Safety Campaign led by the Department of Transport”.
Phaahla said teams are preparing to deal with a spike in motor vehicle accidents, pedestrian accidents, alcohol-related incidents, domestic abuse and gender-based violence, drownings, and gang violence. “We have deployed strategic resources according to the needs and demands of each and every area across the country,” Phaahla said.Additional reporting by
