NADIA BOND: FAMILY SAYS IT WAS NO ACCIDENT

Fathers murder plea

DESIRE RORKE

@dezzierorke

T

he alleged drunk driver responsible for

the death of Nadia Bond might stand

trial on murder charges, owing to the

dolus eventualis rule of intention to kill, the

same legal principal that saw Oscar Pistori-

us convicted for murder.

Believing theKraaifonteinpolicehadbun-

gled the investigation, theBond family earli-

er last month appealed to the Directorate of

Public Prosecutions (DPP) to reconsider the

charges and change it from culpable homi-

cide to murder.

The docket was forwarded to the office of

the DPP and the case postponed in the Kuils

River Magistrates Court on Wednesday,

pending a decision from the DPP.

A person can only be convicted of murder

if an intention to kill can be established,

which is not usually the case in an accident.

But Nadias father, John Bond, says that

this was no accident.

He (Gysman) willingly and intentionally

got into a carknowing thathewasdrunkand

raced down the road in this state, again

knowing that he could hurt or kill someone

in his condition. That someonewasmy little

girl, said Nadias father outside the court

last week.

In South African law, under the principle

of dolus eventualis, (a form of intent) a per-

son can be convicted of murder if they fore-

saw the possibility of their actions causing

death but continuedwith it regardless of the

consequence.

Nadia (8)wasknockedover byBradlyGys-

man (19) in Kraaifontein on 18 September

last year, while crossing the roadwalking to

a friends house.

She suffered a broken neck, extensive

brain damage and internal bleeding.

She was taken to the Kraaifontein Day

Hospital but later transferred to the Red

Cross Childrens Hospital where she died

the following day.

Andr van der Burgh (62) het die naweek

n atletiekbyeenkoms in Johannesburg by-

gekom en was van die lughawe onderweg

na die Paarl.

Sy vrou, Marna, het vertel dat sy motor

omstreeks 19:45 sonder brandstof by die af-

rit na die Cape Garden Centre op die N1

gaan staan het.

Andr het tevergeefs verskeiemense pro-

beer bel om hulp te kry voordat hy die mo-

tor gesluit en in die rigting van die nabyge-

le Winelands Engen-motorhawe gestap

het. Kort hierna was hy skielik omsingel

deur sewe mans, wat met messe en pangas

gewapen was.

Diemans hetAndr aangeval en hommet

die pangas gekap en met messe gesteek. Hy

het onverpoos teruggeveg. Om te keer dat

hulle hom in die bosse insleep, het hy in die

rigting van die teerpad probeer hardloop

in die hoop dat motoriste hom sal help.

Maar niemand het tot sy redding probeer

gekom nie. Vier van die mans het terugge-

stap na Andr se motor en n venster ge-

breek, wat die alarm laat afgaan en die

noodligte laat flikker het.

Toevallig het n ongemerkte polisievoer-

tuig van die Paarl af verby die toneel gery,

die motor met sy flikkerende ligte opge-

merk en gesien hoe Andr aangeval word.

Diepolisiebeampteshet verskeie skote af-

gevuur om die aanvallers te verwilder.

The City last week apologised to residents

for bad service delivery being experienced

at the Brackenfell Driving Licence Testing

Centre (DLTC).

In recent weeks the Brackenfell DLTC

has also had to dealwith all applicants from

the Durbanville andGoodwood areas as the

live capturingunits at the other two centres

were defective, said Mayco member for

safety and security, JP Smith, in response

to questions from TygerBurger.

Local residents were at their wits end in

recent weeks over the lack of service at this

centre, where they had to cue for hours to

make appointments for learners and driv-

ers licence testing.

Several instructors from driving schools

in Brackenfell could also not secure slots

for their students. Smith added that staff

were last week transferred from these two

centres to the Brackenfell facility to assist

with the processing of applications.

The City ismonitoring the situation and

adjusting the service as needed. The City

apologises to residents for the inconven-

ience and asks them to please be patient

while this is being attended to, he said.

A

fter a year of meticulous planning,

filming has started on a movie that

aims to portray the lives of those af-

fected by gangsterism in Scottsdene.

Borne from the local streets and a product

from the community of Scottsdene, the sto-

ry of Jerome follows the life of a young man

entangled in the dangerous world of drugs

and gangs.

The script was written by local resident

LillianBenjamin and is loosely based on the

experiences of Randall Thomas (21) who

grew up in the area.

Actors and extras were also recruited

from the local community.

Themovie will reflect the life of the com-

munity the sadness, loss, despair, and

sometimes also salvation, he says.

This community faces enormous chal-

lenges each day young men who grew up

together as children, who now kill one an-

other in the name of drugs and turf, while

parents are gripped in fear, he says.

At a very young age, the main character,

Jerome, is exposed to murder and mayhem

and desperately tries to find a way out.

The main theme of the movie is drug

abuse and gang violence, coupled with the

myriad of other social ills that come forth

from it, says Thomas.

Producer Frank Buati told TygerBurger

although they were still awaiting funds ap-

plied for from the Department of Trade and

Industry (DTI), they started filming two

weeks ago making do with what they have.

Two short scenes were filmed on Thursday

one in Kraaifontein and one in Belhar.

Kams Kaskote, who directed the scenes,

says they have to work around their actors

and extras.

Many of our main actors are still at

school, while others are at work during the

day. So,wemostlyweworkoverweekends,

he says.

Gysmanwas arrested and chargedwith cul-

pable homicide, drunkand reckless driving

and drivingwithout a valid drivers licence.

After appearing in court on 21 September,

he was released on bail of R2000.

In the case of Pistorius, five judges of the

Supreme Court of Appeal found Pistorius

guilty of murder, saying he armed himself

with a high-calibre weapon and must have

foreseen thatwhoeverwas behind the door

might die, especially given his firearms

training and the fact that he fired four shots.

Bond toldTygerBurgerhe trusted theDPP

to make the right decision.

This is not just about my daughter. Na-

dia is gone. It is about every other person

who could bekilled by adrunkdriver in this

country.

This decision could make a big differ-

ence, he said.

The case was postponed to 24 May.

F

or the first time ever, theCity ofCape

Towns budget has passed theR40 bil-

lion threshold.

A draft budget of R40.7 billion for the

2016/17 financial year was tabled this

week.

The public are encouraged to scruti-

nise the document and to submit com-

ments by no later than 22 April 2016 for

theCitys consideration, executive depu-

ty mayor, Ian Neilson, said in a media

statement on Monday.

According to Neilson a combination of

factors such as the countrys continuing

economic and political woes, rising Es-

kom tariffs, the recent interest rate hikes

and the national drought places a heavy

burden on the citys residents, especially

the vulnerable groupings as well as the

working and middle-income earners.

Wehavehad to lookvery closely at bal-

ancing the Citys operational needs with

the reality on the ground and the broader

context in which we are working. We

have looked at where we can trim the fat,

work more efficiently, get more value for

money and also alleviate the pressure on

our residents where at all possible. This

is evident in our draft budget, he says.

Important

We can only achieve the balance that

is required for a financially, environmen-

tally and socially sustainable city if we

are well run.

It is incredibly important that our resi-

dents and ratepayers scrutinise the draft

budget and send us their comments so

that they canbepart of our efforts tomake

this city even greater. We can improve

our proposals if residents provide uswith

additional insights.

As in previous years, it is expected that

the proposed tariff increases for the next

financial year will enjoy the bulk of the

comment.

This year, due to the latest General Val-

uation for 2015, the proposed cent-in-the-

rand (on which the proposed rates in-

creases are calculated) has also been ta-

bled.

Having due consideration for the pres-

sure that the citys residents and ratepay-

ers are under, the City has managed to

keep its average increases markedly low-

er than in the previous financial year in

most instances, although somewhat

above consumer price inflation as a result

of, for instance, the Eskom tariff increase

and the cost of repairs and maintenance,

especially in the water and sanitation in-

frastructure.

We have been tough on our depart-

ments. That is why, for instance, we have

managed to propose a lower increase in

the electricity tariff despite the Eskom in-

crease. Although approximately 70% of

the electricity cost goes towards Eskom,

the rest of the cost is carried by the City,

for example in the operation and mainte-

nance of the distribution network. It

therefore does not have to increase with

the Eskom tariff increase. This is oneway

of keeping increases lower, he says.

The proposed average rates and tariffs

are as follows: Rates: an average of 6%

down from 10% last year; refuse: 7.92%

down from 8.33% last year; sanitation:

9.75% down from 11% last year; water:

9.75% down from 11% last year; electric-

ity: an average of 7.78%, but only 6.6% for

domestic supply down from 10.82% last

year; disposal: 12.08%.

Rebates increased

In addition, the total cost of the pro-

posed social package for the 2016/17 finan-

cial year amounts to approximately R2.5

billion, including R1.1 billion for indigent

relief and R1.4 billion for rates rebates.

There are also proposed improved rates

rebateswhich include that anyhousehold

with a gross monthly income of R4000 or

less will get a 100% rates rebate (in-

creased fromR3500 permonth threshold).

The maximum monthly household in-

come is increased from the current R5000

to R6000 for the indigent rate rebate for

persons younger than 60 years.

The monthly household income is in-

creased from the current R12 000 to

R15 000 for the senior citizen and disabled

person rate rebate.

The Citys draft budget, including bud-

get-related policies and the proposed tar-

iffs and property rates, will be available

at subcouncil offices and libraries from 4

April 2016. Interested parties are invited

to submit comments to the City manager

by sending an e-mail to city.manag-

[email protected] by 22 April 2016.

Vive la libert! for local musical

Gavin Wright, manager of the Collective Arts Theatre, explains his plans for an upcoming play on

Freedom Day. PHOTO: MICHELLE LINNERT

MICHELLE LINNERT

@linnertmb

H

e couldnt be more excited to be host-

ing a group of amateur actors from

across the Peninsula in a play about

freedom on Freedom Day, nogal.

He refers to Gavin Wright, manager of

the Collective Arts Theatre (CAT) in Bell-

ville, and his guests and colleagues are none

other than the cast of the musical Flag of

Freedom, whichwill run on 27April, or Free-

dom Day, and which is centered around the

French Revolution.

Isnt it ironic? I didnt realise the signifi-

cance of the opening day until I physically

looked at a calendar, Wright tells Tyger-

Burger.

First experience

The cosy little 95-seater theatre he runs in

the heart of Boston in Bellville will play host

to the 14 actors, most of whom have never

been on a stage in their life.

Many of the castmemberswill have their

first experience of live performance in Flag

of Freedom. As director, it is wonderful to

workwith a group of people that are so eager

and talented.

They are 14 in total and from as far afield

as Strand toKraaifontein, BlueDowns, Delft

and Edgemead, and their efforts will be

brought to life by the Fresh Theatre Compa-

ny (FTC) in collaboration with the CAT un-

der Wrights direction.

Wright, an experienced actor, director

and stage manager himself, practically

lights up as he tells of these special actors

hosting them is the culmination of all his

efforts to get amateurs from all over onto the

planks and into the arts.

The FTChas been producing shows since

2001 and its aim is to offer a platform for the

amateur actor, singer or dancer to showcase

their talent, says Wright.

Flag of Freedom is no different. The cast

is a mixture of the novice to the experienced

actor working in perfect harmony creating

the unique look and feel for the production.

Suitable for entire family

What makes the production even more

special, is that the youngest member is only

eight years old, Wright says. The eldest is in

his 50s.

The production is visually beautiful with

plenty of scene changes and visual effects,

he says, pointing to the lighting and painted

scenery behind him on the stage.

It is a wonderful feel-good musical that

is suitable for the entire family.

Wright invites all up and coming talent to

knock on theCATs door and if his own ener-

gy is anything to goby, thismusicalwill defi-

nitely leave a revolutionary light burning in

all its attendees minds after the final cur-

tain call.

The play will run for only four days until

30 April and opens on Freedom Day at 20:00.

DESIRE RORKE

@dezzierorke

After beating prostate cancer in March,

Brackenfells Harry Smit got to meet his

idol Lionel Richie during the singers re-

cent concert visit to Cape Town.

Late last year, Harrys wife, Tanja,

sent an email to the KFM Breakfast

show, wanting to wish her husband a

happy birthday on 12 November.

She was in for a huge surprise, thanks

to KFM Breakfast Show host Ryan

OConnor and the team.

After speaking to Tanja, Ryan

learned thatHarry had checked into hos-

pital for kidney stones last year. Doctors

found problems with his prostate and he

was diagnosed with prostate cancer,

says Shannon Petersen at KFM. After a

valiant fight, Harry beat cancer andTan-

ja wanted to treat her husband for his

birthday this year.

Harry is a hugekaraoke fan andLion-

el Richie is on top of his song request list.

With this in mind, Ryan offered Tanja

two tickets to Lionel Richies concert on

18 March.

Tomake the experience that more spe-

cial, the couple received a three-night

stay at the Southern Sun Waterfront, a

luxury spa treatment, transport to and

from the concert venue and a meet and

greet with Richie.

Back in Brackenfell last week, Tanja

expressed a huge thank you. We en-

joyed the concert somuchandHarrywas

like a kid in a candy store! His love for

music and singing just heightened his

passion by seeing his idol in person.

Thankyou somuch wenowhaveunfor-

gettable memories!

As happy as can be Harry and Tanja with their idol, Lionel Richie.


A

portion of Wellington Road in Dur-

banville will be closed for traffic from

around Monday 18 April for the top-

ping of the large eucalyptus trees along the

road by the City Parks Department.

The section of Wellington Road from

Skool Street (in front of Durbanville Medi-

Clinic) to Langeberg Road will be closed for

short periods to drop major branches. The

exact starting date will depend on weather

conditions and other circumstances.

According to a media release by the City

of Cape Town, thework includes the cutting

down ofmajor trunks at a height of between

10 to 12 metres.

Thiswill result inhighvolumesofmateri-

al dropping on the road surface and verges.

A small number of trees will be removed.

The work necessitates closure of one lane

the lane closest to the trees. The entire

roadmight be closed for short periods not

more than 10minutes at a time to dropma-

jor branches.

There will be flagmen on duty. Limited

temporary signage will be erected indicat-

ing road closures and alternative routes,

Chantal Michaels, director of City Parks,

said in the media release.

Emergency access will be granted to the

hospital.

This drastic measure is taken to reduce

tree related incidents and risks along this

section of road and to improve safety and

living conditions for residents Morning-

star, according to Michaels.

City Parks undertook a thorough inves-

tigation into the safety of the trees, also con-

sidering consultant studies.

Topping (or lopping) appears to be the

best long-term maintenance solution to re-

duce tree related risks.

This practice is out of the ordinary and

is only applied in exceptional circumstan-

ces, she said.

We require the understanding and pa-

tience of residents with this projected to

make the route safer for all users.

We particularly request road users to be

patient and not use the route for their own

C

onsumers in the northern suburbs

can now also partake in a project in

which township communities are

taught to organically grow their own

food, as well as generating an income to

support themselves and families.

Harvest of Hope, a non-profitable orga-

nisation, guarantees the purchase of all

vegetables grown by these farmers by

distributing boxes of fresh products to

consumers weekly. Vegetables included

will change on a weekly basis to offer a

variety of meal options ranging from

carrots, tomatoes, potatoes, spinach and

lettuce to chives, peppers and basil.

Farmers benefit by receiving more

than half the value of the veggie bags

each week.

In this win-win situation consumers

get the freshest, organically grown vegg-

ies at amazing prices, and these farmers

have a permanent source of income.

More than a hundred farmers are part of

this project.

By partnering with GreenMonday SA,

Harvest of Hope is now also offering this

service to consumers in the northern

suburbs. Green Monday SA aims to im-

prove animal welfare, human health and

environmental sustainability by encour-

aging consumers to leavemeat, dairy and

eggs off their plates for one day a week

and replace it with plant-based alterna-

tives.

Harvest of Hope offers fresh vegetables

to consumers living in the Durbanville,

Parow and Milnerton areas once a week

on Tuesdays. Consumers can now order

and collect their fresh weekly greens at

iNkosi Eco Lodge at 9 Odette Street, De

Tyger in Parow between 16:30 and 20:00.

M

illions of tons ofwaste canbedivert-

ed from the crammed Cape Town

landfills by means of a new home

composting project to be launched soon.

Some 5000 home composting containers

will be made available free of charge to in-

terested home owners city wide, of which

about 200were allocated to Brackenfell and

Kraaifontein. Each of the Citys 23 sub-

councils will receive an equal allocation.

According to a report tabled before the

local subcouncil, distributionwill start aft-

er the launch which coincides with Earth

Day on 22 April. However, interested home

owners will have to meet the qualification

criteria.

The initiation of this programme fol-

lows detailed research, which indicated

that an average of 16.9kg per household per

month of organic kitchen and gardenwaste

can be diverted from landfill by using these

containers, says city official Noel Johan-

nessen.

The study which was conducted in 2013,

indicated that 90% of the participants used

to throw their organics into thewheelie bin

while one year later more than 78% of the

respondents were composting at home.

Budget has been allocated for the pur-

chase of 5000 home composting containers

per year for the next three years from 2016,

and once the 5000 units have been allocat-

ed, all applicants thereafter will go onto a

waiting list until the next consignment ar-

rives, he says.

Johannessen says that only home own-

ers, serious about gardening and caring for

the environment, should be issued a con-

tainer. There is a higher probability that

they will continue in this new waste man-

agement behaviour by diverting organic

waste into the container.As such, some cri-

teria have been included in the application

process. This includes a secure gardenarea

at the home with a minimum of a 1x1m

open soil area for placement of the contain-

er and a minimum of 30x30m covered by

lawn, plants or greenery.

2. VERBRUIKSTARIEWE EN -HEFFINGS

Water, sanitasie, elektrisiteit en vaste-afvalbestuur word teen 14%-BTW belas.

2.1 WATER

Drie stelle watertariewe word voorgestel (10%-verminderingstarief,

20%-verminderingstarief en 30%-verminderingstarief). Elke tarief is gekoppel aan die

waterverminderingsvlak wat opgel word. Die normale tariefstel het betrekking op n

vlak van tenminste 10% onder die lae watervraagkurwe aangesien vorige beperkings

en watervraaginisiatiewe die normale watervraag suksesvol tot hierdie vlak verlaag

het, en die vlak 1-beperkingsmaatrels as permanente goeie watervraagpraktyk by

die uitgevaardigde Verordening opWater en Sanitasie ingesluit is. Die tariefvlakke van

vermindering of beperking wat die Stad sy verbruikers opl, is dus nie slegs gekoppel

aan die beperkingsvlak wat die Departement vanWaterwese die Stad opl nie,maar

ook aan die vlak van verbruikersvraag.Weens die huidige klimaatsomstandighede het

die Stad Kaapstadmet ingang van 1 Januarie 2016 waterbeperkings tesamemet die

20%-verminderingstarief ingestel. Die 20%-verminderingstarief sal ook op die boekjaar

2016/17 van toepassing wees tot enmet verdere besluite oor die waterbeperkings.

n Verhoging van 9.75% in waterverbruikstariewe word voorgestel.

20%-verminderingstarief en 30%-verminderingstarief). Die normale tariefstel het

betrekking op n vlak van tenminste 10% onder die lae watervraagkurwe aangesien vorige

beperkings en watervraaginisiatiewe die normale watervraag suksesvol tot hierdie vlak

verlaag het, en die vlak 1-beperkingsmaatrels as permanente goeie watervraagpraktyk

by die uitgevaardigde Verordening opWater en Sanitasie ingesluit is. Die tariefvlakke van

vermindering of beperking wat die Stad sy verbruikers opl, is dus nie slegs gekoppel

aan die beperkingsvlak wat die Departement vanWaterwese die Stad opl nie,maar

ook aan die vlak van verbruikersvraag.Weens die huidige klimaatsomstandighede het

die Stad Kaapstadmet ingang van 1 Januarie 2016 waterbeperkings tesamemet die

20%-verminderingstarief ingestel, Die 20%-verminderingstarief sal ook op die boekjaar

2016/17 van toepassing wees tot enmet verdere besluite oor die waterbeperkings.

n Verhoging van 9.75% in sanitasieverbruikstariewe word voorgestel.

LEWENSKIEKIE

Die dice het

verkeerd vir

Spottie geval

Spottie was n kruising tussen n fokster-

rir en n brak van onbekende oorsprong.

Hyt effens hor as n skou-foksie op sy

vier lang, dun bene gestaan. Di het ook

stokstyf gebly wanneer hy sy versigtige

skuifelpassie oor die witgerypte Vrystaat-

se gras gee so asof sy ledemate vasge-

vries was.

Spottie was die hond van kennisse van

my pa-hulle in my grootwordjare in

Bloemfontein. Ek het baie by die een

seun gaan speel.

Dit was mense wat n n hond moes

aanhou nie.

Wanneer Spottie se heserige kroepblaf-

fie oor die werf geweeklaag het, het dit

vir my kompleet geklink of hy self besef

die dice het vir hom verkeerd geval.

Hy is die huis verbied. Die paar keer

wat hy dit sou waag om sy neus oor die

kombuisdeurdrempel te druk, is hy met

n koor van voertsekke deur die gesin

verja. Soms het hy sommer n skop

gekry.

Ekt altyd sy rug

gevryf, maar het

daarna gewoonlik

van kop tot tone

gejeuk. Spottie het

elke denkbare

vlooi, bosluis en

kruipende gogga in

sy pels gehuisves,

want hys nooit in

sy aardse bestaan

gewas nie. Die

naaste wat hy aan

n bad gekom het,

was as n donder-

storm losbars en

hy druipnat onder die enigste vyeboom in

die agterplaas skuil.

Sy slaapplek was n goiingsak op n

yskoue en onbeskutte sementvloer.

Wanneer ek wintersaande in my snoesige

bed na die geraas van die boomtakke

teen geute geluister het, het ek my

verbeel dit was ou Spottie se ribbes wat

so teenmekaar geklapper het.

Spottie is by die huis gelos wanneer sy

mense met vakansie gaan. Deur die loop

van die jaar is braaivleisbene en muf

broodkorsies gevries, wat dan as Spottie

se vakansiekos moes dien.

Op n keer het Spottie n voornemende

inbreker aan die been beetgekry. Di

lawaai het sy huismense wakker gemaak.

Die volgende dag het Spottie se baas

trots vertel van sy getroue waghond,

selfs Spottie se kop gestreel, maar toe sy

hand vinnig weggeruk en Spottie toege-

snou: Voertsek, man, jy stink!

Dis toe dat ek besef: n hond is dalk n

mens se beste vriend, maar n hond kan

nie altyd dieselfde van n mens s nie.

After last years devastating

chaos at the Post Office, we all

had high hopes that the service

would return to normal and

that we could use the post

office with relative trust to

deliver our mail reliably again.

Alas, it has not happened.

I posted a small parcel on 24

November by airmail to

Germany, and they finally

received it on 15 January.

(almost 5 weeks for airmail?)

Another airmail parcel was

posted on 22 January, which

still has not arrived. A letter

from Pretoria took six weeks

to arrive. It was posted with

fast mail what a farce! I

am beginning to suspect that

the Post Office cashes in on

airmail, but sends it surface

mail to save on costs. Can

anybody blame me for thinking

this?

We have become so accepting

of bad service that we are

thankful if we get our post at

all, shrugging it off with oh

well, at least it arrived.

I would love to know if other

people had similar experiences.

n Motoris is op 23 Maart op

die R300 in die omgewing van

Kuilsrivier deur n verkeersbe-

ampte afgetrek en beboet

R1 000 vir hom, sowel as sy

passasier, omdat hulle nie hul

sitplekgordels gebruik het nie.

Dit is heeltemal verstaanbaar.

n Bykomende boete van

R1 000 is opgel ten opsigte van

die volgende klagte:

Driver not having control

over vehicle (eating whilst

driving): Reg. 308(1)(e) van die

Padverkeerswetgewing.

Na aanleiding van Magdeld Nel

se skrywe Klank te hard by

vertonings, TB, 30 Maart, wens

ek ook my siening te lug. Ek

stem volmondig saam met wat

sy s. Ek het n groot liefde vir

musiek en was al by verskeie

musiekvertonings by Grand

West en my ondervinding is dat

die musiek hopeloos te hard is.

Dit is selfs met die afgelope

jare se Bakgat Country-opskop

ook so. Dit is veronderstel om

countrymusiek te wees, maar

hoekom die musiek so oorverdo-

wend hard gespeel word, gaan

my verstand te bowe. Is coun-

trymusiek dan nie musiek van

n rustige genre nie? Wat

probeer die klankmense doen?

Jaarliks moet n mens luister

hoe hulle van die aand n

rockkonsert maak. Besef die

mense ons is hier besig met n

country-vertoning? Die

Calming zones before Decem-

ber, TB, 30 Maart, verwys. Ek

verstaan die kommer van ouers

by die skool. Maar dit is ook

frustrerend vir motoriste wat

op pad werk toe is as die

kinders een-een op hul tyd oor

die pad stap. Hoekom kan die

skool nie n skoolpatrollie daar

instel nie? Daar is n laerskool

in Boston wat dit doen en dit

werk goed. Dit is ook n besige

pad. Verder stel ek voor dat die

ooggetuies die motors se

registrasienommers afskryf en

hulle rapporteer en dit selfs in

die koerant plaas.

Thanks to Desiree Rorke for

highlighting this silly bureauc-

racy (Practicality of animal

bylaw questioned, TB, 30

March). Being usually a

law-abiding citizen, I registered

all my domestic pets in accord-

ance with JP Smiths stern

instructions three dogs and

three cats. By the time I

received my permit, two years

later, one of the dogs and all

the cats had died of old age and

we had moved house.

His control measures were

worthless, and remain so. It is

like licensing bicycles simply

not worth the effort, and all

that happens is the City

Council makes fools of them-

selves. I generally hold the

Council and JP Smith in high

regard, but this was an own

goal, a blunder worthy of other

parties, and JP should quietly

bury it and move on.

daar nie so n wet wat jou

verbied om te eet terwyl jy

bestuur nie.

Om n broodjie te eet, kan

beslis nie jou bestuursvemo

benvloed nie, want jy eet mos

met jou mond en nie met jou

hande nie. Een hand moet ten

minste op die stuurwiel wees.

Ons almal, en ek glo die

betrokke beampte ook, eet of

drink (water of koeldrank) een

of ander tyd terwyl ons bestuur.

Mnr. Spietkop, word asseblief

wakker en gee aandag aan

ernstiger oortredings sodat jy

nie die publiek se geld en howe

se tyd mors nie! Of was dit

maar n geval dat jy jou kwota

vir die dag moes volmaak om te

bewys jy het darem gewerk?

Reg. 308 van die Padverkeers-

wetgewing is as volg: Niemand

wat n voertuig op n openbare

pad bestuur of het, mag wan-

neer hy of sy die voertuig

bestuur, so n posisie inneem

dat hy of sy nie volle beheer

oor die voertuig het of dat hy of

sy nie n volle uitsig op die

ryvlak en die verkeer voor die

voertuig het nie.
