Tragedy indeed. The family must be under so much stress right now and I hope they pull through okay. The driver must be charged with murder and Sowetan must keep the story in the news so no dockets go missing.

@sekhebereshe&lindsay. Remember this grieving mother was emotional and probably narrated the story in Setswana. An experienced journalist will take their notes and put the story in a proper written format and not just regugitate what the journalist said.

Lawlessness in our roads requires government to strengthen surveillances in order to ensure safety in our roads. The estimated fatalities since the festive season began amount to nearly 700 lives. In these lost lives, we have tax payers, parents, future leaders and so forth. The biggest cause of ever soaring fatalities is corruption, especially in a process of acquiring a driver’s licence. Our people are still subject to bribing the police before are pronounced legally fit to drive in our national roads. The shortcoming of this model is that this removes the incentive for adequate driving lessons. In part because of economics of driving and on other hand because people believe driving test can only be passed if you have given a bribe. In other words your capability cannot secure a drivers licence rather a bribe guarantee you a drivers licence. Furthermore, if a drive is found exceeding the speed limit a bribe guarantees immunity from the law enforcement. Clearly, there are faulty lines in the law enforcing agency, which need to be corrected by admittedly improving salaries for the police and also imposing harsh penalties to the police found accepting bribes. But as citizens we have the responsibility to care for other citizens. The golden rule says do unto others what you would like to be done unto you.
Another killer is drink and driving. At this time of the year with windfall of cash people over indulge in alcoholic beverages. All citizens should remain responsible and don’t drink and drive. If a friend over indulge in alcohol at your home, you must insist that he/she rest and even drink coffee because it dampens alcohol content in the blood. Overall, over drinking is detrimental to your health and moderate drinking if necessary should be considered.

i understand that shock and heartache can make you say confusing things especially if the shocking incident is still fresh hence i said maybe its shock speaking because there is no way her wedding is important than her daughter

Exposure to poverty can do you absolute injustice. If she was a middle class woman preparing for her wedding the following day there would have been cars all around to help her prepare for her happiest moment. I bet all the expensive cars were in Mangaung. What a sad turn of events, askies mama.
