A: No, we obey road rules.

Q: What do you think of other Mzansi road users?
A: Most motorist are impatient when they drive. Some of them drive under the influence of alcohol, especially during weekends, month ends and holidays like Good Friday.
This bad behaviour is costing our country a lot as it kills many people every year. Every road user must learn to be patient and cut down on speed.
