The Motor Vehicle Accident Fund has cautioned motorists to be considerate during this solemn time.

Its Chief Executive Officer, Rosalia Martins-Hausiku, stresses that with increased traffic expected in Windhoek for the state funeral of President Hage Geingob, motorists are urged to be patient on the road.

Martins-Hausiku emphasises the need for adherence to speed limits and responsible driving to ensure the safety of all road users.

Pedestrians are also reminded to use designated crossings and pathways for their safety.

Motorists at Otjiwarongo are calling on the local municipality to fix potholes that they say are damaging their vehicles and slowing down their business. 

The wide and deep potholes are a nightmare to motorists who fear they might cause accidents as they negotiate around them and are costing them money as tires are constantly damaged.  

Taxi drivers shared their concerns.

"Our business is running slow because of these potholes, then there is the fixing of cars our cars are getting old day by day, we need to change this."
