Thanks, would you know the costs

Kranskop. Class 1 vehicles Warmbaths (Bela Bela) – Naboomsprt. SANRAL. R60,00.  

Naboomspruit – Polokwane. Class 1  R77,00

You can get all the toll fees HERE

Thanks 

Another site to get the fees from the AA

Although the toll fees are high, it is worth paying that instead of taking the alternative routes. Going through congested towns with possibly bad road surfaces and struggling to pass slow moving trucks is no pleasure.

if your in Warmbath [bla-Bela] you can drive Nylstroon [Modimolle]   -- Naboomspruit [Mookgophong] -- Potgietrsrust [Mokopane]

This road is in good condition and I travel it regular with my caravan in tow Not a lot of truck

I still have my e-tag although I had to go and replace them, works like a charm at the gates even going down to Natal...Don't know the amounts as long as there is credit.

I gave up paying for e-toll when they started writing off people's e-toll debt and I removed the tags but now I use it and stay on the main routes  (owe them something like R12K)

Parking at the malls everything goes of the tag

Kranskop though stays a nightmare on long weekends.. 

I owe them nothing. If they write off debt they should credit me. Ha ha.

Die e-tol is steeds 'n groot grap.  SANRAL is volgens berigte, van plan om steeds agterstallige etol van motoriste te verhaal.  Hoe hulle dit nou gaan regkry na hulle onsuksesvol was toe die stelsel nog in werking was, is nie duidelik nie.  Hoe hulle die miljoene enkele fooie gaan verhaal is nog meer duister.  Howe kan nie eers hulle bestaande werkslading hanteer nie, hoe gaan hulle derduisende nuwe sake, wat elkeen bewys moet word, hanteer?  En dan is die eise van 'n siviele aard en siviele eise verval na drie jaar. As hulle vandag sou begin om skriftelike eise af te lewer, , kan hulle dus net fooie wat na 25 Oktober 2022 ontstaan het, opeis.  Alles voor dit het verval.  Dis bloot skuld en nie kriminele oortredings nie, wat dalk langer neem om te verjaar.  Ek dink hierdie is net weer 'n oefening in futiliteit en om belastingbetalers se geld in 'n bodemlose put te gooi waar slegs mense wat daarmee werk daarby sal baat en waarskynlik milkdelik so.

Ek lees dat dit beplan is om op 1 Desember 2025 die demerit stelsel te begin implimenteer. As jy daarna nog onbetaalde boetes het gaan dit demerits veroorsaak waneer jy die skuld erkenning betaal.

Dan ook lands wyd gaan jy nie jou kar licensie of bestuur licesie kan hernu nie as jy uitstaande boetes het.

OUTA welcomes the clarification by the Director of Licensing and Prosecutions of the JMPD, Mr Gerrie Gerneke, that unpaid e-toll bills cannot lead to the withholding of vehicle license registrations.

His explanation clarifies that the failure to pay an e-toll bill was not a traffic infringement, and that the traffic authorities have no jurisdiction over non-payment of e-tolls bills.

Dit word aan beveel dat jy by AARTO registreer om te sien of jy enige uitstaande (onbetaalde) "traffic infringements" het en dan die skuld erkenning betaal voor 1 Desember 2025 om demerits te voorkom. As jy na 1 Desember 2025 skuld erkenning betaal kan dit demerits veroorsaak.

As I understand it non payment of eToll fees is not a "traffic infringement" and thus AARTO  has no jurisdiction over toll fees and they possibly will not show up on their system. I guess we will soon find out 1 December is only a few weeks away.

Paul have you, or anyone else, registered on AARTO and checked if they have any unpaid etoll fees? Would be good to know if they show up on AARTO‘s system.

eToll debt is subject to the Prescription Act 68 of 1969 which is 3 years. I have not heard of SANRAL successfully  prosecuting anyone for unpaid toll fees. The majority of those fees would have prescribed by now.

Toll fees is a civil matter and not a fine so it cannot be used to block your licence. A civil claim also cannot be changed to a criminal fine so I dont think you need to fear. I have regularly paid etol in order to be able to use the tags on the highways. As I dont live in Gauteng and just occationally passed thtough this was a minor expense.

The road from Bela-Bela and through Modimolle is not so good.  In Modimolle there are roadworks from the N1 through the main road in town.  Best to stick to the N1.    

Brian I did register to see if there are any unknown outstanding (unpaid) infringements against my name. There were none....all paid. I did not see anything about e-tolls. That is a separate civil issue and as you said not a criminal infringement.

Net ingeval julle nie bewus is hiervan nie, daar is 'n scam of dalk meerderes, wat motoriste probeer oorreed om uitstaande boetes op internet te betaal. Road Traffic Infringement Agency (RTIA) waarsku motoriste om dit nie te doen nie.  Ek het nou al 'n paar keer so 'n boodskap gekry om 'n boete van R500 wat in 2018 in Johannesburg sou opgelê gewees het, sommer onmiddelik net daar te betaal. Ek weet van die sogenaamde oortreding want ek het dit op 'n legitieme webbladsy opgespoor, maar ek is onsluldig want die voertuig was nie daardie tyd in Johannesburg nie. Ek is al voorheen aangeskskryf vir 'n blou Toyota wat oortredings begaan het- my voertuig is 'n silwer BMW.  Hy ry blykbaar mer vervalste nommerplate rond.  Buitendien is die sogenaamde oortreding meer as drie jaar oud en die Johannesburgse verkeersdepartement het al 'n jaar of twee gelede besluit om nie sulke oortredings op te volg nie. (verjaar verkeersoortredings?)

So wees op julle hoede, die b(*&^ms sit oral en wag om ons te bedonner.

I got a fine on 05 June In KZN, average speeding ticket received in the post. I have been onto NATIS, Aarto and Pay City websites but cannot find any outstanding fines.

The ticket says I must either pay via Pay City or at Pinetown (or by cheque???) I'm certainly not making a special trip to Pinetown to pay.

My problem is that the vehicle's registered in my wife's name and she doesn't know about it.

I hope she doesn't get penalised on 01 December.
