Watch: Motorist shoved around by Gauteng traffic police officer
'If I defended myself I would've probably slept in jail the whole weekend'

WARNING: THE VIDEO CONTAINS STRONG LANGUAGE
Gauteng resident, David du Toit, uploaded a video on Facebook on Friday morning showing what happened to him and his wife at the N4 Bakwena/N1 South interchange.
According to him a Gauteng traffic police officer immediately attacked him, slapped their car’s bonnet, broke their keys and left him with a bleeding thumb because his wife was filming an accident scene.
“He pushed me and poked me in the face. If I defended myself I would’ve probably slept in jail the whole weekend. Who the hell is he to do whatever he wants and get away with it?” he asked.
