South Africa has a backlog of 320,000 driver’s licences, (https://mybroadband.co.za/news/motoring ... cials.html)
I quote........ Transport Minister Fikile Mbalula has revealed that South Africa has a backlog of 320,000 driving licence, with demand growing by 90,000 each month.
Speaking to ENCA, Mbalula said this backlog is caused by corruption among back-office staff at driving licence testing centres (DLTCs).
Over the past few weeks, many South Africans trying to renew their driving licences expressed frustration with the system.
Gauteng MEC for public transport and roads infrastructure, Jacob Mamabolo said government officials who hijack the system are to blame for the problem.
