Over 200 truck drivers have been subject to violent attacks in 2019 and more than 2000 vehicles have been damaged by illegal blockades, stoning and arson

Posted on Leave a comment

The newly appointed Minister of Transport, Fikile Mbalula, says that unscrupulous transport operators and illegal foreign national truck drivers are to blame for the recent spate of violence.

For local truck drivers, 2019 has proven to be the deadliest and most dangerous period on the roads in recent history. In the last 18 weeks alone, over 200 truck drivers have been subject to violent attacks – some resulting in fatalities – while more than 2000 vehicles have been damaged by illegal blockades, stoning and arson.

Our lives changed in an instant at 8 pm on 23 March 2018 when shots were fired directly at my eldest son’s head from outside, these shots missed his head by cm’s.

I can only describe this as feeling like WILD ANIMALS being hunted. Our attacker shot through the s
