AARTO Update – 11 July 2011

On 15 April 2011, the Minister of Transport published Government Gazette 34208 calling for comments on the draft Administrative Adjudication of Road Traffic Offences Regulations, 2011, which are intended to replace the previous regulations to be submitted to the Director General of the Department of Transport.

This gazette comprised 219 pages, which almost constitutes a complete re-draft of the AARTO Regulations and changes quite a bit with respect to how AARTO will affect various parties.

It was recently agreed to by a few of the major car rental companies that if AARTO is rolled out with the current legislation including the proposed changes, that these companies will take the matter to High Court requesting a judge to interpret the AARTO Legislation.
