Allegations of bribery have been levelled against the Road Traffic Inspectorate (R.T.I) recently.
This was after a man was caught speeding at 114 km/h in a 100km/h zone on the Dundee/Vryheid road. He was stopped by a traffic official who was going to issue him with a traffic fine.
The traffic official had a sudden change of heart and asked the man what he can give him instead of a traffic fine.
The man played along and called his wife to arrange a payment of R1 000.
The deal was made and they agreed to meet at a later stage. During the meeting the man recorded the conversation and later reported the offence to the Police.
A case of bribery has been opened and investigations are underway.
