Warning friends and family or complete strangers of where roadblocks are placed is soon to become an offense.
In September 2010, the Justice Project South Africa made a statement against the tipping off motorists on the road about upcoming roadblocks or speed traps. Public declarations speak out against these warnings, not for them but for your own safety.
One of the ways in which drivers warn oncoming motorists about roadblocks or speed traps is by flashing their headlights. So are the flashing of headlights soon to be considered as defeating the end of justice?
By defeating the course of administration, you are being unlawful and intentionally engaging in conduct which defeats the course of justice.
Flashing your headlights does go against the justice system, as it defeats arresting those for drunk and driving or speeding.
