Cape Town - A truck driver was captured via dash-cam driving dangerously along the N2 near Richards Bay in KwaZulu-Natal.

Arrive Alive posted the video via a reader.

The driver, who filmed the incident, said: "This huge truck was being driven so dangerously at high speed (although it had an '80km/h' sign at the back of the trailer) that I started videoing all the transgressions."

Arrive Alive editor Johan Jonck said of the incident: "It's important that we remove lawless and reckless drivers from our roads.

"This information will help traffic authorities such as the RTMC but also benefit truck operators and fleet managers to remove reckless drivers through disciplinary processes. We have found that truck owners are very responsive when receiving such evidence.

"They are aware of the risks not only to other road users but also to their own equipment and the cargo it carries for clients. We would like to invite road users to send such evidence to the Arrive Alive Road Safety Website!"
