JOHANNESBURG - Motorists in Johannesburg will not be forced to pay their outstanding municipal bills at roadblocks.

The City of Joburg has received a backlash for their new debt collection strategy, where motorists stopped at a roadblock could also be asked to pay outstanding rates and taxes.
The crackdown on defaulting rate payers began last week.
