I Quote:
Pretoria - The controversial Administrative Adjudication of Road Traffic Offences (Aarto) Act is proving so unaffordable for the Johannesburg Metro police that the city is even considering suspending traffic law enforcement.
Postage amounting to R10m a month, a R98m claim and a 63% (R145m) fall in annual income from traffic fines have plagued Johannesburg.
Before Aarto came into force, Johannesburg sent its fines by ordinary post.
But the Aarto act prescribes that this should be done by registered post, which inflates the price by about R15 per notification.
Not even 80% of the fines sent at great expense by registered post are fetched from the Post Office, according to the report.

Brilliant!!! THIS is why i love africa. Bumbling beaurocrats can't even get a speed fine done right.
Good. May they suffer the death of a thousand cuts.
