SA's road carnage | Breaking fatal pattern of crashes this festive season

MANTSOLE - With the festive season well upon us, road safety is once again in sharp focus. 

Limpopo officials are launching another festive season road safety campaign led by Premier Phophi Ramathuba.

The N1, a lifeline through the province, has become notorious for deadly crashes during this time of year. 

Despite repeated efforts and awareness campaigns, the toll continues to rise.

Earlier this year, 45 people died in a bus crash near Mmamatlakala. 

This begs the question: Are these campaigns enough to change behaviour on our roads? 

Our reporter Hloni Mtimkulu is out in Limpopo and joins us with more.
