Concerned citizen collects bolts and nuts falling off cars
"How often do people have to service their cars?" asks Mr Kotze
A concerned Ladysmith citizen has been collecting nuts and bolts that fall off cars in Ruby Gailey Drive and Francis Road. He believes the parts are falling off due to motorists going over speed-humps at high speed.
Concerned resident Mr Willem Kotze has been picking up the nuts and bolts for the past three months now.
“The objects fall off cars mainly because drivers go over speed-humps at high speed and also because the speed-calming devices themselves are too high. How often do people have to service their cars, because it can’t be good for vehicles to be losing nuts and bolts all the time?” asks Mr Kotze.
He urges people to send their cars for regular check-ups to avoid this happening when going over speed-bumps.
Mr Kotze has taken to removing these objects from the road, as they pose a danger to other vehicles as well.
