The Aftermath of the Easter Holidays.

Driving on the freeway on my way to work this morning and listening to the Arrive Alive jingle #SafeEaster2023 by the newly appointed, National Minister of Transport; Ms Lydia Sindisiwe Chikunga, l cannot help but applaud government’s efforts to conscientize road users on road safety measures. We are back from the holidays and brokers are inundated by requests to process claims emanating from the different road accidents experienced over the long weekend. While this may be the case, over the years it has been proven that moving violations are the biggest causes of road crashes on national routes. Road users are therefore urged to take necessary precautions and make it their business to: obey the speed limit ensure vehicle and driver fitness rest every 200km or every 2 hours not overtake on barrier lines buckle up, and don’t drink and drive As Maksure Risk Solutions, it is our mandate as your insurance broker, in the eventuality of an unfortunate road incident to assist the client at the accident scene, ensuring that they take the needed precautions, such as gathering all information from the 3rd party, taking images, contacting traffic officials.
