DURBAN - Angry Newlands east residents have blocked the Dumisani Makhaye Highway in KwaMashu following a deadly taxi accident that claimed the lives of three teenagers.#NewlandsCrash Police are now monitoring the situation as community members blockade one side of the highway as a form of protest against the accident that took place today.

— EWN Reporter March 6, 2019 Infuriated Newlands east residents closed off one side of the highway with burning tyres and were hurling insults at every taxi from the Lindelani Taxi Association. Community members said the three teenagers who were killed in the deadly taxi accident were not the first victims of drivers from this particular association.
One resident said drivers from Lindelani continuously break the rules of the road, and around two weeks ago, three children from the Thobile Primary School died in the same way on the same highway.#NewlandsCrash [WATCH] The public order policing have now arrived on the scene and are engaging residents. They’re saying taxi drivers from the Lindelani taxi association have killed too many people on this highway and must be shut down. ZN pic.twitter.
They should block the taxi rank
The driver probably cones from the same community they know him
The residents need to take action against the driver / taxi company. Blocking the road and making it everyone else’s problem is what is wrong with the country
