Public prosecutor arrested for drinking and driving in Margate
According to RTI, the woman's alcohol reading was 0.83mg/L, which is four times over the legal limit.
A public prosecutor was one of 54 motorists arrested for drinking and driving yesterday (Friday) said the KZN Department of Transport.
Road Traffic Inspectorate (RTI) arrested the 44-year-old woman for driving under the influence of alcohol at about 23:01 on the R620 Marine Drive in Margate.
According to RTI, her alcohol reading was 0.83mg/L which is four times over the legal limit.
MEC of Transport and Human Settlements Siboniso Duma asks : “What is the contribution of the legal fraternity in curbing road fatalities caused by binge drinking?”
” Our Zero Tolerance, No Nonsense and Alufakwa campaign is our only weapon in our battle against drinking and driving. Hopefully, this latest arrest will ignite a conversation.”
Over the past two weeks alone, the RTI team has arrested more than 130 motorists for drinking and driving.
The arrests were made in multi-disciplinary roadblocks led by women commanders.
