Not trying to sell the motorcycle commuting thing, in the end it does not matter to me how others commute, but there are myths being posted here which need to be addressed.
There is a local Telegram group for safety where accidents and so forth are posted to enable people to be more informed.
Of the motorcycle incidents, the majority by far are Sixty60/deliver riders, partly because there are many of them, but mostly because many of them ride like idiots.
The commuter related incidents are way less than some here would like to read, if they were capable of reading to begin with.
Personally I have commuted on motorcycles in Cape Town since 2009, until 2016 I did not use a car at all, no incidents.
Post 2016 I commute less, but when I do, I use a motorcycle, again no incidents.
The same goes for most of my friends, the fwe who had incidents over the years were minor.
But this is going to go to far off topic now, I do not even know if the OP is into motorcycles at all.
@Foxhound5366 good luck with your move, contrary to what the village idiot in the thread wants people to believe, living in Cape Town is great.
