Bolt drivers in South Africa go on strike
Bolt has told MyBroadband that a small number of its drivers were not operating as part of a protest on Monday.
The company did not elaborate on the reason for the strike action, but an earlier report from EWN stated that e-hailing drivers from Bolt and Uber in Gauteng, Free State, and the Western Cape were trying to draw attention to the need for regulation of the e-hailing industry.
According to the report, the protestors were using Transport Month to demonstrate their grievances over alleged exploitation by the companies.
