As the holiday season approaches, it’s important to prioritize safety on the roads. The Gauteng Department of Roads and Transport is focusing on reducing road fatalities through increased awareness and vigilance. The banner Fatela represents a joint responsibility to look after each other’s safety on the roads, including pedestrians, passengers, and transport operators. To ensure road safety, make sure your vehicle is roadworthy, drive with a valid license, avoid drinking and using drugs while driving, and follow speed limits. And for general safety, be aware of your surroundings, avoid excessive drinking and disputes, and always lock your windows and doors.
