| dc.description | Papers presented at the 38th International Southern African Transport Conference on "Disruptive transport technologies - is South and Southern Africa ready?" held at CSIR International Convention Centre, Pretoria, South Africa on 8th to 11th July 2019. | |
| dc.description.abstract | The aim of the paper is to analyse the causes of non-prosecution of drunk-driving cases in the magisterial courts of Vhembe District. A case study was conducted of five magisterial courts found in the Vhembe District area. The approach was to peruse finalised case dockets of drunk driving from each magisterial court. A random sampling method was used to select case dockets, twenty from each magistrate to give a sample size of 100 cases. The results show that motorists in Vhembe District have been arrested for driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs. However, the number of prosecutions is very low, which is a cause of concern. It is concluded that there is an urgent need to develop strategies that will increase successful prosecution of those motorists who drive under the influence of alcohol in South Africa. | |
