The two officers were on duty on Friday night and inspected the truck on the R594 road, according to a statement from the office of national police commissioner, General Khehla John Sitole.

The driver of a light delivery vehicle, who was allegedly heavily under the influence of alcohol, crashed into them. They were wearing reflective jackets at the time, the statement indicated.

1)Papsak or
2)Was hoarding a year's worth or
3) He bought illegally
 
Why was the truck that was being 'bribed' by the traffic officers not pulled right off the road so that the road would be clear?
WTF were they in the road, or even near the road? They should be way out of the way of any traffic.

I'm fully aware that I'm making the assumption that they were on the road or its verge.

Where does it say they were not on the side of the road? The LDV driver was drunk according to the police statement.
