#Letter: Pay up for poor driving

Ballito resident Ernie Johnson calls for faster replacement of damaged traffic lights and accountability from those responsible.

Ballito resident Ernie Johnson writes:

Why is it that when a traffic light or robots are knocked down, such as the current one on Ballito Drive, it takes so long to replace it?

One has been out for six months at least. Surely the motorist who knocked it down should be made to pay for the replacement costs?

This is what happens in many countries. Same with street lights the offender should pay for the damage they do.

Then it should be replaced immediately instead of making residents suffer.
