Be Careful Of This When Driving In The N1 - New Trick For Criminals To Rob You

South Africans took to Twitter to share their thoughts after a warning was shared on social for motorist to be vigilant when driving in the N1. Crime is rife in the country and it seems like criminals are forever coming with new ways to rob ordinary citizens of their belongings. Highways have been targeted of recent times with reports of rocks in the middle of the road to stop motorist and rob at night, in remote ares.

Popular social media influencer Daniel Marven shared this on his timeline to encourage South Africans to be wary not to fall in the trap. This can be dangerous considering the fact that it can cause fatal car accidents for people who are driving at a high speed and could lead to more severe crimes like hijack, murder from the criminals who reportedly hide in the bushes for a victim.

South Africans shared that the crime rate in the country is a cause for concern. Many shared that this method is dehumanizing because it is a method usually used on animals. This sparked outrage from tweeps who were baffled by what the country has come to at the hands of criminals.

Motorist should be aware of their view when driving at night as cases similar to this have been reported over the past couple of months. This angered many who felt like the SAPS aren't doing enough to protect citizens from this types of crimes, hardworking people are more prone to any type of crime in the country at the moment.
