If you are stopped at a roadblock with an outstanding traffic fine in South Africa, what happens?
The short answer: You could be arrested.
Before a summer holiday road trip, the last thing you want is to be caught in a jam because of outstanding traffic fines.
In many cases, drivers do not even realise that there is a warrant out for their arrest before it is too late. Don’t let this be you. There have been instances in which police have been able to arrest drivers because a warrant had been issued for the driver's arrest.
The police cannot demand payment for outstanding traffic fines immediately. In this
situation, motorists have a number of rights they can exercise; however, most
practical if this type of stressful situation is avoided altogether.
