This is such a tragedy. What on earth is going on on our roads. The RSA reduced speed limits and its have no impact, and why has there been so many crashes of late involving professional drivers (buses, trucks)

Something that I think should be made illegal…..pressures and or incentives in jobs for making X amount of deliveries in X amount of time. It takes as long as it takes to do it safely without driving like a maniac.
It leads to some very dangerous driving. Had a DPD van yesterday drive about 60m down the road on the path because the traffic in front of him was taking too long for his liking, only to see him about another 150m up the road sprinting in front of traffic to do a delivery and causing the car in front of me to slam on the brakes

Exactly same stretch of road saw Robert McLoughlin killed in 2017 when he was hit by a car.

This hits quite hard. That young boy was as innocent as we will get; it hits very, very hard to see his young life lost.
I’m ashamed that incidents like these seem beyond our capability to stop.
