  • It’s Official: Volkswagen Drivers Are the Worst On The Road

    Roadhogs is a local site put together to report bad drivers on our roads. As it stands now, Johannesburg is voted the worst city to drive in (with 49% of the votes!) and Volkswagen drivers, the worst on the road. Check out some more stats taken from the site below.

    Web developer, Gary Mailich, created Roadhogs in 2000 after his car was damaged in a road rage incident. He thought it would be safer for drivers to vent their anger online than on the road.

    I lived overseas before and was not used to the roads here. So when some guy cut me off one day, I showed him the finger. He responded by following me, cutting me off again, stopping his car and coming up to mine. I immediately locked my door but he kicked it, swore at me and then left.

    Most of the complaints on the site are about speeding, jumping red robots or stop signs, and cutting-off. There’s also a search engine to check if your car’s number plate has been reported – go check it out!
