Authorities Condemn Irresponsible Act
According to a source, the video surfaced at a crucial time when authorities were implementing strict measures against irresponsible drivers. The Road Traffic Management Corporation (RTMC), expressing strong disapproval on Twitter (now X), labeled Naki’s behavior as “grossly irresponsible on a public road.”
Potential charges that the RTMC may bring against him include obstructing traffic and negligent driving (section 63 of the NRTA 93 of 1996), which could lead to arrest.
“We strongly condemn this action,” stated the RTMC, with spokesperson Simon Zwane emphasizing that the incident occurred in Cape Town but providing no further comments.
