18 LIVES LOST IN 'RECKLESS DRIVING' SPREE
Cape Argus
|May 08, 2025
Due to reckless and negligent driving
RECKLESS and negligent driving led to the death of 18 people in 16 fatal crashes on Western Cape roads over a period of six days.
The provincial Department of Mobility said it is concerned over the statistics, recorded between April 29 and May 4.
During this period, 16 fatal crashes occurred, resulting in the tragic loss of 18 lives.
In addition, 267 speeding offences were recorded. Among the highest speeds were:
◆163km/h in a 120km/h zone
◆139km/h in a 100km/h zone
◆124km/h in an 80km/h zone
◆114km/h in a 70km/h zone
◆104km/h in a 60km/h zone
"These shocking speeds not only endanger the lives of drivers, but also those of passengers, pedestrians, and cyclists.
"Speeding increases the likelihood of losing control of a vehicle, reduces the effectiveness of protective equipment, and increases stopping distances, ultimately raising the risk and severity of incidents," the department said.
