Furthermore, Officers gave a detailed explanation of how everyone has a vital role to play, when it comes to road safety and road public transport. A clear understanding was shared on what role Officers play, with regards to road traffic, road transport and how all parties can work together, in creating safer roads throughout the City of Ekurhuleni (CoE).
