Check Your Traffic Fines Via SMS
April 24th, 2008 by brent
Well, assuming you live in South Africa. Starting April 17, residents of Johannesburg, Cape Town, the Free State, Swellendam, and Paarl can check their traffic fines with their cellphone.
Apparently it’s as easy as texting “Register” then your ID number to 34010. You will shortly receive a response listing all of your unpaid traffic fines.
Very nifty. It would be nice if we could get a similar service set up over on this side of the Atlantic.
”This service will no doubt go a long way towards making it more accessible and convenient for motorists to check their outstanding fines,” says Wayne Minnaar, the service’s representative spokesperson.
