Those who voted ANC won't be charged a cent, they check it on the system if that person is marked ANC it's free.

That has to be the most astoundingly ignorant post I've read in ages.

Let's work with his theory a bit, so if you are affluent and don't use a taxi and voted for the ANC - how will the toll system know not to charge you?

Maybe he knows something we don't

[Cranky]

lol Shirou... do you believe the shit you talking about? If yes then it will make 1 person.


I believe we needed a upgrade and yes it should be paid for, But you should have a choice in the matter. The other roads are terrible so you have no choice but to use it. I don't like the fact that taxis are exempt because they over load the taxis and the weight of the taxis contribute more to the damage on the road than me in my little car.

If I carpool with 2 other mates that means that I am also public transport and should there for be exempt to paying ?

It is traveling almost 100Km a day for me and i will be passing about 4 of these tol gates. So i will almost definitely hit the R550 cap .

Another quick fact is that if you dont pay you will eventually get a summons of court for you not paying.

They cant send you 1 saying you have to pay the following amount.

They need to give you a summons for every day for every tollgate that you pass through. So I hit 8 to and from work

So they need to send me 8 for a day and on Saturdays I have to take my Gf to Wits so that is another 5-6 .

so they will have to send me a total off 200 for 1 month,

The legal fees will exceed the R550 they make from me. So they are screwed if people dont pay haha

[Fivel]

Ok, if we accept that we need our roads to be maintained and that the improved highways are better, how do we go about paying this then?

[wizdumb]

probably for the 1st time ever, i'm with the union, cosatu on this one - they will strike to put a stop to this, or at least try

i will not be buying an e-tag until i get my 1st fine for not having one

[Weasley]

why is there a fuel levies and its also going up by 25c?

[sycogrim]

I spoke to one of our tax consultants today and even he said it was just another excuse for the government to make money off it's people. Another thing they don't have is the resources and the man power to maintain this infrustructure. If people don't pay then the government gets screwed over for not only wasting money, but their fine system will collapse.
