Duduzane Zuma’s defence team for his trial at the Randburg Magistrate’s court led evidence that it was unlikely Zuma was speeding when his Porsche 911 smashed into a minibus taxi near the Grayston Drive M1 off-ramp, resulting in the death of passenger Phumzile Dube. Zuma faces charges of culpable homicide after the crash in 2014.
Lotter rebutted any suggestions that the Porsche could have been travelling faster than the taxi. He told the court that on looking at where the car had hit the taxi, it was possible that when the crash occurred the Porsche driver had been slowing down. Lotter said it made sense that a vehicle travelling at high speed would take longer to be brought to a halt.But prosecutor Baba began by reading out an expert’s opinion of good driver behaviour.
Hellens interjected and said that Baba’s assertions were hopeless, as he had referred articles on the Porsche and the car’s performance to Zuma, who was not an engineering expert.
