WHEN motorists see Durban Metro cops’ vehicles, they make sure they respect and follow road rules.
This is because the job of the Metro cops is to make sure road rules are followed to reduce accidents.
But now eThekwini Metro police have launched an internal investigation after a video of a Durban Metro cop vehicle breaking road rules was leaked.
The 23-second video shows the vehicle spinning twice at an intersection and driving off afterwards.
It also shows people standing on the side of the road taking cellphone videos.
Even though it’s not clear when it was taken, it seems it was at night as it’s dark and the street lights are on.
Daily Sun called Durban Metro police spokesman Sibonelo Mchunu, who said he couldn’t talk because he was in a meeting. But he told News24 what the driver did was against the law.
“The department is aware of the video and an internal investigation has been launched for disciplinary purposes,” said Mchunu.
