The has seen the arrests of three so called "jockeys" who allegedly wrote learners test of behalf of licence seekers.

Welcoming the arrests, MEC of Transport, Community Safety and Liaison Sipho Hlomuka, said as part of their alleged actions, more than 20 learner’s licences were cancelled.

He added that those arrested would soon appear in court and face the full might of the law for their actions.
