TRAFFIC: TESTING LEGAL JUSTICE SYSTEM INSTEAD OF FINES
Fines not fine CARINA ROUX
S
peaking at a public meeting of the Bothasig Neighbourhood Watch last week Helen Carstens, council 3 chairperson and councillor for Bothasig, Goodwood Prison and Edgemead, touched on traffic enforcement happening in the area. She said she got the impression that many people think such enforcement does not happen, but 131 fines to a total value of R68 200 were issued in July. The majority of these were on Vrybur-

ger Avenue, De Grendel Avenue and Edgemead Drive, and then also a few on other streets like Bosmansdam Road and Steven and Bothma streets. The offences ranged from driving with a cellphone and not having a vehicle licence, to not stopping at a stop street, among others. Cartsens said she had held a few meetings with traffic officials and that they are going to move away from fines at the moment and will be testing out the legal justice system. “So if you don’t stop at a stop street they’re going to arrest you; if you are caught speeding they are going
to arrest you.” This, she said, will hopefully drive the message home. “I’ve always said it would be better if, when we get issued with a fine, we get issued with community service, because what is more humiliating than putting on an orange overall and going to pick up litter in De Grendel Avenue or Bosmansdam Road? It’s sure going to make me stop at every stop street. It has actually become too easy for people to pay a fine and then just carry on doing what they are doing,” said Carstens. V To page 2.
