'Using WhatsApp take our members': Santaco wants illegal 7-seater shuttles dealt with in SA

The South African National Taxi Council (Santaco) has warned about the rise of illegal seven-seater shuttle services, saying they are unsafe and take business from licensed taxi operators.

Speaking at a press briefing alongside Minister of Transport Barbara Creecy on Thursday, Santaco president Motlhabane Tsebe said the unregulated seven-seater shuttles, often booked through apps like WhatsApp, pose serious safety risks and undermine the formal taxi industry.

"We are deeply concerned by the rapid proliferation of illegal seven-seater vehicles that are operating as shuttle services, especially for long distances. But this one, I think, as we are sitting, we've dealt with the e-hailing," Tsebe said.

"Now there comes this other one that is using apps like WhatsApp to take our members, and these are unregulated operations and operators pose a serious safety risk, and this is where some illegal and criminal activity comes in."

Tsebe called on law enforcement and transport authorities to act quickly to clamp down on these illegal services, protect passengers, and ensure that licensed taxi operators can operate safely and fairly. He stressed that unregulated vehicles not only threaten road safety but also undermine efforts to build a professional, law-abiding taxi industry.

"We need to deal with that because it poses a serious risk through these unlicensed vehicles and undermines a fair transport operation environment. Their growth is well-intentioned, but the risk is escalating into regrettable incidents of violence, and this has to be quelled before they gain prominence."

"We are saying thank you to the law enforcement. We've seen the action that they've taken in the province of Limpopo, where some of the patrollers in our name were arrested, and we applaud that because we are saying this industry we need to do away with the same name that says taxi violence. We are a taxi business."

TWO TAXI DRIVERS KILLED IN SHOOTING AFTER CONFRONTATION WITH MOTORIST😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

Two taxi drivers were shot and killed during a violent confrontation involving a private motor vehicle, in an incident that has shocked the local community.

According to reports, the incident unfolded after the taxi drivers noticed a small car giving a lift to passengers. Believing the vehicle was operating illegally, they allegedly began pursuing it, unaware that the situation would turn deadly.

The car was being driven by a man identified as Khanyile, who was on his way to a doctor. He had earlier picked up his father and cousin from a stop, as his father was unwell and needed medical attention. Shortly after leaving the area, Khanyile noticed a taxi following closely behind him with its headlights flashing. He reportedly hooted in response.

Moments later, a second taxi allegedly overtook Khanyile at high speed and stopped abruptly in front of his vehicle, blocking his path. The taxi drivers then exited their vehicles and confronted him, demanding that he stop transporting the passengers.

Khanyile is reported to have told them that the passengers were his family members. Despite this explanation, the taxi drivers allegedly attempted to force open the car doors, which were locked. One of the men then picked up a brick and smashed the front window of the vehicle.

Fearing for his life, Khanyile allegedly retrieved a firearm and shot both taxi drivers in the head. They were declared dead at the scene.

Authorities are expected to investigate the circumstances surrounding the shooting, including claims of self-defence and the events leading up to the confrontation. The incident has once again raised concerns about ongoing tensions and violence linked to passenger transport disputes.
