Carte Blanche M-Net

Cyclists are being subjected to the worst examples of reckless driving whilst being denied proper justice. Thursday, 20 June 2024 𝗧𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝘀𝘁𝗼𝗿𝘆 𝗼𝗿𝗶𝗴𝗶𝗻𝗮𝗹𝗹𝘆 𝗮𝗶𝗿𝗲𝗱 𝗼𝗻 𝟭𝟲 𝗝𝘂𝗻𝗲 𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟰. Dewald van der Westhuizen used to be an avid cyclist. He was a regular on Cape Town roads, training with his coach for the coveted IRONMAN championship. But all that changed in December last year when he was run over by an allegedly drunk driver. His injuries were horrific, leaving Dewald fighting for his life. The driver was arrested several hours later and charged with driving under the influence, leaving the scene of an accident, reckless and negligent driving, and attempted murder. His licence was revoked. But shockingly, less than six months later, his bail conditions were relaxed and his licence returned. Sadly, this isn’t an isolated case. Some reports indicate that motorists who hit cyclists are often let off with little more than a slap on the wrist. This Sunday, Carte Blanche asks whether cyclists subjected to the worst examples of reckless driving are being denied proper justice.
