Stick to the rules even if the roads are quiet, says the AA. Picture: SUPPLIED
While the lockdown announced by president Cyril Ramaphosa on Monday will see far less traffic, the roads will still be used by people involved in essential services travelling to and from work, and people driving to buy groceries, among others. The association says health services across the country are experiencing huge pressures on their resources. In addition, people with other illnesses and emergencies still need to be cared for and assisted.
In addition, the AA says people who are still on the roads need to assess each driving situation as there are people who are abusing the current crisis to drive recklessly.
