Sanral suspends process of pursuing e-toll debt
The South African National Roads Agency has announced that it is suspending the process of pursuing e-toll debt.
This after Sanral's board passed an urgent resolution on the matter on Tuesday.
"It resolved that given the initiative led by President Cyril Ramaphosa to address the e-tolls payment impasse, Sanral will, with immediate effect, suspend the process of pursuing e-toll debt. This includes historic debt and summonses applied for from 2015. No new summonses will be applied for," Sanral spokesperson Vusi Mona said in a statement issued on Wednesday.
Sanral says the decision will be constantly monitored by the board and reviewed according to prevailing circumstances.
Netwerk24 had reported earlier this month that only 26 motorists had received default judgments so far for not paying their e-toll bills.
Mona told the News24 sister site that motorists owe Sanral more than R10.9 billion in unpaid e-toll money.

What is this initiative?the initiative led by President Cyril Ramaphosa to address the e-tolls payment impasse
So is the plan to withdraw now and come back later and attack from a different angle?Jack Welles wrote: ↑Wed Mar 27, 2019 4:03 pmThe real reason, I believe, is because they can't blacklist anyone on a Sanral court unpaid default judgment with the credit bureau. Which removes from them a most potent weapon.
The courts have ruled that a Sanral judgment doesn't meet the definition in the NCA Act for blacklisting the defendant on credit bureau, because it's that Act that authorises such listings and the Sanral judgments don't fall under the NCA Act.
Just a theory, but I like it![]()
Is it still 70c of each rand leaving the country?
Yip 74 %
Yes .. but at least folk in Cape Town, Durban and Bloem will be contributingJack Welles wrote: ↑Wed Mar 27, 2019 7:38 pmGotta luv it when people say they won't pay for those roads. They'll pay. One way or the other. They'll pay.
The State stands behind the e-toll deal with Sanral so will have to cough the money in the end. That means tax money. The people will pay. Like it or lump it, the people will pay![]()
Not a total theory. Similar to having an insurance company listing you for not paying an insurance premium. Changed banking details and cancelled an insurance policy once with Outsurance. They continued to debit a closed bank account and ulimately did a listing on credit bureaux without my knowledge. A sternly worded lawyer's letter soon fixed that.Jack Welles wrote: ↑Wed Mar 27, 2019 4:03 pmThe real reason, I believe, is because they can't blacklist anyone on a Sanral court unpaid default judgment with the credit bureau.
