The Johannesburg Metro Police Department (JMPD) was back on the Beyers Naudé Drive and N1 highway bridge during the morning of Monday, 11 November to crack down on lawless taxi operators.
It seems as if taxi drivers did not learn any lesson, or the warning was not conveyed to other operators, following arrests for similar offences last month. In mid-October, the JMPD arrested seven taxi drivers on the same route for reckless/ negligent driving – in the form of driving in oncoming lanes and the yellow lanes.

Today’s Buya Mthetho operation jailed another two taxi drivers for reckless, negligent and inconsiderate driving, according to an Ask the Chief Facebook post, which concluded by warning that lawlessness will not be tolerated.
