Car rental George, South Africa

Car rental George – Must Know

Red traffic lights indicate a stop for everyone except … you've got it, minibus taxis. They get an extra two or three seconds turn across on-coming traffic, or just shoot through. In some areas it is considered cool to slip through behind, so long as you keep really close. If five cars can stick close enough, they can all go through. But you are allowed to be rude to those people.
