Slaughter fields

THERE are too many reckless drivers on our South Coast roads.

Our road carnage figures over the holiday period are staggering.

And nationally more than 1 700 people died in car crashes.

Every road user should be concerned about the prevalence of moving violations, drunk drivers and unroadworthy vehicles.

The problem of road freight needs to be dealt with urgently as we have too many heavy vehicles which often retard free-flowing traffic.

Motorists who commit serious transgressions and those who drive while over the legal alcohol limit must face the wrath of the courts.

Report bad drivers to traffic authorities – let’s all become responsible road users.
