The Road Freight Association (RFA) has commented on the structure and nature of AARTO (the Administrative Adjudication of Road Traffic Offences) since the first iteration of the Act in 1998.

It’s midway through the day after June 30, 2026. The dust has settled, and it’s time to take a look at what the day held for South Africa in general – and the road freight and logistics sector, in particular.

The President addressed the country on Sunday, 07 June 2026 – reminiscent of those Family meetings during Covid – and ambled down a route as to why we are not an anti-foreigner country (the nasty word is xenophobic), what the government is (not) doing to address the situation, and what we as employers are doing wrong and therefore are to be ashamed of ourselves and will be prosecuted.

The Chartered Institute of Logistics and Transport South Africa (CILTSA) has confirmed Dr Andile Sangqu, Chairperson of Transnet, as keynote speaker for its ESG Conference taking place on Tuesday, 23 June in Sandton, Johannesburg.

The Road Freight Association (RFA) acknowledges the fuel price adjustments effective 3 June 2026.

Severe winter weather in the Western Cape, including flooding, strong winds, fallen trees and vehicle damages, has highlighted the growing risks motorists face on the road during the colder months.

The increase in the price of fuel has not come as a shock to the road freight industry. The Road Freight Association (RFA) was very aware that a price increase was coming, and had advised both its members and consumers that they needed to prepare – as best as possible – for what lay ahead.
