#FestiveRoadStats |Mbalula is joined by Limpopo Transport and Community Safety MEC Mavhungu Lerule-Ramakhanya and RTMC CEO Makhosini Msibi.
#FestiveRoadStats |Mbalula: The preliminary figures we are releasing today are a dipstick on the progress we are making towards achieving our 20% target to reduce fatalities this festive season.
#FestiveRoadStats |Mbalula: The peak travel period is upon us and we expect traffic volumes to spike between today and Thursday, followed by another spike on 31 December. The final peak is expected on the 3rd and the 10th of January 2021.
#FestiveRoadStats |Mbalula says the roads have been busy, despite the Covid-19 pandemic. An average of 2 439 vehicles per hour were recorded on the N1 from Gauteng to Limpopo between 18-19 Dec; while the N3 from JHB to DBN recorded an average of 1 547 vehicles per hour.
#FestiveRoadStats |Mbalula: A total of 416 roadblocks were conducted from 1 to 20 Dec, with 634 166 vehicles having been stopped and checked. A total of 109 529 motorists were issued with traffic fines for various offences.

-1 801 vehicles were impounded
- 2 111 motorists arrested for various offenses
- 896 were arrested for drunken driving
- 336 for speeding
- 588 warrants of arrests issued for outstanding traffic fines
#FestiveRoadStats |Mbalula says 690 people lost their lives on our roads over the period 1 to 20 December 2020, compared to 732 over the same period in 2019 - this is a 5.7% year-on-year decline.
#FestiveRoadStats |Mbalula says the total number of crashes has declined by 8% compared to the same period last year.
#FestiveRoadStats |Mbalula: Six Provinces recorded a decline in fatalities
-Northern Cape recorded a 23.5% decline
-Western Cape recorded a 26.6% decline
-Free State recorded a 28.8% drop

-Limpopo recorded an 18.4% increase
-Mpumalanga recorded a 15.9% increase
#FestiveRoadStats |Mbalula: While it is encouraging to see a decline in fatalities, we are still a long way from achieving the 20% target. I urge all road users to exercise extreme caution as we enter the second phase of our peak travel period.
#FestiveRoadStats |Mbalula: In the coming days we will intensify our focus on hotspots. We will equally intensify the enforcement of Level 1 regulations and directions. This includes enforcing the curfew for all road users.
#FestiveRoadStats |Mbalula says he's aware of videos showing the Dinho convoy along the R80 Mabopane Highway into the Daspoort tunnel.

"This conduct is unacceptable, and our law enforcement authorities will show no mercy towards people who turn our roads into party spots."
#FestiveRoadStats |Mbalula threatens the use of rubber bullets to disperse motorists in 'convoy parties', adding "this mickey mouse behaviour will not be tolerated next time".
#FestiveRoadStats |Mbalula: It's not yet uhuru on the roads.

Parents in cities, please pay attention to the reopening details from the Whitehouse.

Biden says "small classes". What we need to understand is how they plant to accomplish this.

Through "childcare programs in schools". We see this all over states w/ closed schools.


We need to grasp that the AFT, NEA, & local unions are systematically working to decouple education from childcare.

Their vision is your child sitting on a device all day, watched by a childcare worker, being "taught" from a Teacher working from

This isn't a paranoid conspiracy theory - it is already happening in the majority of districts across the US where schools are closed.

"Learning Hubs" open, supervised by childcare workers, sometimes in the same "unsafe" school

There is NO OTHER WAY to get "small classes" without Hybrid + wraparound childcare. Your child will spend 2-3 days per WEEK supervised by low wage workers and sitting on a laptop.
