Trading illegally will not be tolerated!!! Bear in mind that your goods will be impounded!!! #JMPD officers are impounding perishable goods from illegal informal traders. Pushing trolleys on the road is illegal & dangerous as it obstructs the flow of traffic, endangers pedestrians & puts the person pushing the trolley at risk of being struck by a vehicle. It can also cause accidents when drivers are forced to swerve or brake suddenly. #JoburgByLaws #BuyamthethoManjeNamhlanje #SaferJoburg
