Demand your tag refund from Sanral says attorney
Business Live reports that the interim interdict granted to the Opposition to Urban Tolling Alliance (Outa) means that the e-tags are no longer necessary and motorists should be entitled to reclaim any money spent from the South African National Roads Agency Limited (Sanral) or the Electronic Tolling Company (ETC).
According to the Business Live report, Pieter Conradie, a director at Cliffe Dekker Hofmeyr, the attorneys acting for the applicants in the case brought to stop tolling from going ahead, says it is likely to take a number of months for Sanral and government to study the court's ruling and decide whether to appeal the findings. Moreover, Conradie says, the pressure exerted on government to abandon e-tolling by the Congress of South African Trade Unions and other interest groups may never be implemented.
