Well, not William Nicol. It is purely a guess but if they roadblock William Nicol they'll have a civil war on their hands and the economy would likely take a massive hit :p
 
I had a though: what if you buy an etag in PnP and don't activate it? Just stick it to your window and it looks like you are tagged.

My guess. Pretoria. Lynnwood/Atterbury south. John Vorster. R21 into town.

Jhb. Atlas again. Allendale.
 
From reports I've heard on where they are located, seems they are located at onramps before gantries (explaining Rigel south in a pic I saw, and Samrand south I heard a reports about on radio). Obviously I don't see them because I only use the free sections.
 
If Sanral holds a roadblock.What stops you from just driving thru?I understand pepper spray might be a bit much.just close your window and drive.Ignore them
 
Anyone have an idea until about what time do they keep the roadblocks running? I need to go to Pretoria later today and I'm not in the mood for... debates.

Quick check on your registration plates will tell them otherwise. ;)
 
If they stop me and they cant provide me with a metro police badge im driving away

They still have to have an appointment card. Without that you can drive away. Same is true if they are SAPS. JMPD, EMPD, TMPD etc.

Of course. Just clarifying what pictures and news reports have shown (and that people who call in down know there are different traffic police organisations and everything is just "metro cops".

Because if you try, they lock you up and/or assault you

The title of this thread is thus corrected:

Gauteng roadblocks not about e-tolls, its all about bribes, we long for some nice KFC!

Yes they might, but thats just gonna add value to your captured footage... These cases should be exposed and I would take one for the team. In Russia almost all vehicles are now with dashboard cameras and any engagement with traffic officer or any other encounters are recorded for your protection.
 
Saw one at the Allendale on ramp toward jhb yesterday, massive queue all the way past Neotel from what I could see.

Heavy police presence with the Sanral Etoll trailers.
 
Well done Scmural on making me late and doing nothing, but absolutely nothing to help the flow of traffic in this damn province ever.

If it is not some damn stupid accident every live long day and night where two morons decide to crash into each other, or some run down beat down piece of crap that Lucifer only knows how it manages to start every day that breaks down and parks in the middle of the highway, THEN IT IS YOU MORONS!

A few weekends ago you held up the entire highway both ways, and today caused a damn 30 minute delay again. I do not have a tag and you did not even pull me over, so WTF are you doing???? Just annoying us more????

Next time, please do stop me and pull me over so i can make News24 for slaying a damn metro cop and his scumrail counterfeit colleague in public view.
