Joburg City as culpable as Putco bus driver

WHY is Putco just picking on their driver? Okay, I can understand their charging him with reckless driving for ignoring the warnings when he stalled the bus and stranded his passengers on the New Canada road last week, but why just stop with him?

Why not also charge Joburg City manager Mavela Dlamini with damage to property, because he's the one that neglected to get the relevant departments to see that the New Canada and other roads are properly drained so that Putco bus drivers can get their passengers home safely.

The Putco bus driver might be guilty, but the City management is just as culpable.

Ann Barnes, DA chief whip, City of Joburg
