A regular visitor to the Arrive Alive website sent these images to show how pedestrians revert to extreme measures to catch a lift. This disregard for safety begs the question whether we are reaching people with our road safety messages?!
These photos were taken on the N2 near Cape Town. It is not clear whether the police vehicle managed to stop the truck and remove the passenger clinging to the back of the truck.
