Why blame the liquor stores, have you heard of drink responsibly?

 

People are people. Imperfect.

Then there are enabling forces like 'legal drugs' for sale.

Something definitely needs to be done about lawlessness on our roads! I saw at least 5 drivers on cellphones today and not one traffic officer in sight! Apparently no traffic officers on duty on a Sunday in Cape Town! Standing together countrywide will make a statement and a start to making things better!

How about focusing on getting traffic cops off their bums to do drunk driving checks or something? Other thoughts??

 

Yeah but the road blocks aren't gonna go on till 6 in the morning when this happened..

Have you ever seen a road block at 5 in the morning on a cycle?

 

Its the guys that come home at 6am that are on pills and stuff.. The real party animals.

Don't get too exited with the law on this one. Many cyclists will remember Zona van de Wyver. She was knocked down and killed by a drunk driver at 6am.

 

The driver got off scott free.

His mother resides in Beachview and he was most probably on his way there to hide his vehicle.

Anyone know if he got bail?

What are the charges against him?

Confirmed? Slippery slope here...

Rip Clem. Very sad. I have a driver near my house who drives drunk a few times a month. I see him stumble out of his car. I spoke to the trafficops and there isnt much i can do unless they catch him in the act!! so frustrating.

Confirmed. He did not only ruin the lives of the deceased's family and friends, but also his own and that of the ones close to him. Let justice take its course. We all have to take responsibility of our actions. The moment he got behind the wheel, he had to think of the implications!

Do you know if he has appeared in court yet?

named, identified and shamed

 

lets hope he goes away for a long time and has many years to reflect on the implications of his decision to get behind the wheel of his car drunk as a skunk and do all of this whilst behind bars !!
