<\/a><\/p>\nSanral said that Dembovsky\u2019s statements expose \u201cthe shallowness and lack of understanding of those who purport to be experts on the matter\u201d.<\/p>\n
The agency added that it has taken legal advice every step of the way in implementing the highway e-toll system \u2014 and won every challenge that has been taken to the courts of the country.<\/p>\n
\u201cThose who want to challenge us on the legality of the use of blue lights are welcome to do so,\u201d said Sanral\u2019s head of communications, Vusi Mona.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt is not their opinion that matters, but what the law says, and we are confident we have done everything by the book. What we do is legal. And that is the case with the blue lights on our vehicles too,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
Sanral said that the attempted controversy over the use of blue lights on traffic control vehicles was \u201cjust a red herring\u201d.<\/p>\n The blue lights are only operated by and in the presence of a traffic officer, Sanral said, and the vehicles themselves comply with the applicable legislation.<\/p>\n \u201cWhat is more important here is the effort to do proper enforcement on our roads, thereby addressing issues such as non-road worthy vehicles, vehicles without number plates or false number plates, and other road traffic offences,\u201d said Mona.<\/p>\n \u201cSelf-styled champions of justice and the rule of law ought to be addressing themselves to these issues instead of trying to undermine sound and legal attempts to assist law enforcers on Gauteng\u2019s highways.\u201d<\/p>\n This article first appeared on My Broadband<\/a><\/p>\n Sanral obeys its master on e-toll prosecutions<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n Sanral threatening motorists over e-tolls<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\nMore on e-tolls<\/h3>\n
