POTSDAM ROAD AND MALIBONGWE DRIVE: MOTORISTS WARNED TO BE VIGILANT
Smash-and-grab central

eports of smash-and-grab incidents on Potsdam Road and Malibongwe Drive surfaced recently and motorists using these routes have been warned to be vigilant when travelling on these roads. Malibongwe Drive, which stretches from Rivergate to Contermanskloof, is normally congested during peak hour traffic, with provincial traffic vehicles often patrolling the area. Traffic officials are also regularly visible on Potsdam Road, which runs through Dunoon. Despite this, it is reported that both roads are dangerous due to smash-
and-grab incidents. News of smash-and-grabs was shared with residents on a local community Facebook page recently where several people indicated that they too have nearly fallen prey. Carla Greig, spokesperson for the Table View Neighbourhood Watch, says they are aware of such incidents, but only those which have been reported on Facebook and to the local police. Asked where specifically the attacks occur, she responded: “A few on the bridge going over the N7 towards Malibongwe, but more often along Potsdam Road.” The neighbourhood watch recently joined the Table View police and other Law En-
Greig warns motorists. On Friday 1 December a resident wrote that he had been a victim of a smash-andgrab on that day at around 15:30 in Dunoon. “These guys are so fast and quick you don’t even see them coming,” he wrote. One resident commented saying that such attacks have been occurring for more than a year. “I stopped driving through there about four years ago after an incident. They work in teams of three or more; grab your valuables and disperse into the township in different directions,” another resident wrote. The Table View police were contacted, but were unable to comment this week.
forcement agencies on a special operation held near the N7 bridge. Greig says the attacks have been ongoing for a while and that motorists should therefore be wary at all times. “Do not leave your handbag, cellphone and valuables visible; put them in the boot of your car. “Close your windows when driving through the area, as some people have had their phones grabbed right out of the open window. Leave a safe following distance between yourself and the next vehicle in case you need to make a quick getaway. Be extra vigilant when driving in these areas and do not talk on your cellphone at traffic lights,”
