Traffic Police Urged to Enforce Laws Against Daladala Drivers

TLDR

• During peak traffic hours, some daladala drivers abandon congested roads and divert onto pedestrian walkways, forcing people to jump aside or risk injury.
• Officers should take a tougher stance against daladala drivers who deliberately leave the main carriageway to use pedestrian lanes, particularly during rush hours when traffic congestion is at its worst.
• When drivers obey traffic laws, accidents are reduced, traffic flows more predictably and mutual respect develops between motorists and pedestrians.
• They are not shortcuts for impatient drivers or escape routes during traffic congestion.
• Traffic Police also have a crucial responsibility.
