Minister of Transport Barbara Creecy and Deputy Minister of Transport Mkhuleko Hlengwa at Terminus Taxi Rank interacting with taxi drivers and taxi commuters as part of her ongoing endeavours to encourage road safety in the run up to this week’s Easter Weekend.
Road safety remains one of South Africa’s biggest challenges, and holiday periods often see a surge in road accidents due to increased traffic volumes, alcohol consumption, fatigue, and adverse weather. More than 11 000 people lost their lives on South Africa's roads in 2024 alone with 1 502 fatalities recorded during December festive season
