IN CONVERSATION WITH SELLO MAREMANE

The Gauteng Department of Community Safety’s Road Safety Promotions Unit in collaboration with the Department of Roads and Transport will conduct a
Driver Safety Education Campaign targeting e-hailing operators on Thursday, 12 March 2026. The campaign aims to promote responsible driving behaviour among e-hailing drivers and address growing concerns about reckless and negligent driving on Gauteng roads. The alarming increase in the number of e-hailing vehicles involved in speeding and dangerous driving behaviour, while attempting to maximise profits,
continues to place the lives of passengers, pedestrians and other road users at risk. This driver safety education initiative, therefore, seeks to raise awareness
about safe driving practices and encourage compliance with road traffic laws.
The campaign also coincides with the new public transport regulations coming into effect on 12 March 2026, which require e-hailing operators to comply with the National Land Transport Amendment Act regulations and possess valid
operating permits to operate legally. The regulations also require operators to
install panic buttons and ensure proper vehicle branding. The Gauteng Department of Roads and Transport provides guidance and
support to operators on the process of applying for the required permits.
