The driver must have got a fright because she stopped. The car was unlicensed, the driver was unlicensed, the car was unroadworthy, the driver was underaged. Had there been an accident the driver would not have been even able to pay for towing the car away. Had there been an accident , after the lawyers had finished with it, between two and five years would have passed. Same with Rath and the TAC, nothing is going to happen there for the next 3 to 4 years. So should Rath be allowed to say what he likes because slow justice is no justice, or in this case should the dirvier of the vehicle be removed from the road or allowed to continue to be a hazard to all and sundry until the law finally and at long last does something about it.

As a result of the past South African journalists seem very susceptible to advocacy journalism for good causes and can be blinded in the process. Thank you for making this point.
