WATCH: OUTA CEO encourages motorists to stop paying e-tolls

JOHANNESBURG - The money is better in your bank account than SANRAL’s.

These are the words of Organisation Undoing Tax Abuse (OUTA) CEO, Wayne Duvenage.

Duvenage is encouraging motorists to stop paying for e-tolls as the system is expected to be scrapped.

He says this will speed up the process.

"They have made the commitment that the refunding is gonna be alternative to e-tolls, it’s gonna be financed through National Treasury and somewhat from Gauteng revenues," he said.

"It’s less about the arrangements that we made between national and provincial governments and more about turning the system off because nobody is paying or very few people are paying.

"And the few that are paying are getting very frustrated because they have to plan for this."

He said motorists should stop paying.

"So everyone should just stop paying now. There are no consequences for those who don’t pay. Nothing at all.

"So really, just stop paying and that might speed things up a little.”
