Over the past three years, 799 Western Cape police officers were investigated for breaching policies around the use of state vehicles.

“While the percentage of transgressions compared to the total number of SAPS members in our province is low, this is a matter where one transgression is one too many when we consider the broader context of policing in the province,” he added.at least 30 of their police officers in the Western Cape were found to be driving under the influence of alcohol;24 officers were found to have misused state vehicles;246 collected traffic violation infringements.

The SA Police Service was conducting disciplinary processes for 25 of its officers while 66 were still under investigation.Also of concern, Allen said, was the revelation by police minister Bheki Cele that “1,200 [police] vehicles in the Western Cape are currently not servicing communities in the province”.

I've always thought it was normal for them to use the state cars as private car's.

This is normal in South Africa not only police officers but government officials using state vehicles. 1. Buying groceries 2. Visiting friends & girlfriends 3. At tarven delivering alcohol 4. Used for exporting drugs and weeds.

😂is this like taking the car home over weekends? Driving it in civvies?
