rate residents who need to renew their vehicle licences or register new motor vehicles did not only have to endure waiting for more than four hours in the queue at the Durbanville licensing office last week. They also had to endure all kinds of weather – from hot sunny weather earlier in the week to pouring rain last Friday when TygerBurger visited the licence office at the mu-

nicipal building. People in the queue had already been waiting for more than four hours to have their licences renewed – some from other suburbs such as Brackenfell and Bellville. Some were there for the second time after they were unsuccessful earlier. In the meantime, officials at licensing offices all over the City of Cape Town managed to process a record of close to 900 000 vehicle transactions in the four months since June,

according to a media release by the City. This is more than double the amount under normal, non-pandemic conditions, Ian Neilson, Mayco member for finance and executive deputy mayor said to TygerBurger. According to Cathy Vadas (71) from Durbanville she took matters into her own hands last Tuesday when she saw an elderly woman of “at least 90 years standing for hours in the scorching sun” in the pensioner’s queue.

“The poor woman was red in the face; it was boiling hot. Another woman went to ask if she can sit inside in the shadow to wait her turn, but was refused. “She was told that nobody is allowed to sit inside after there was a quarrel with the people in the normal row. “They said if they let the old people sit inside, other people complain,” Vadas told TygerBurger.
