suggested the Government to examine law relating to Motor

on road are insured for third party risk and the owners of the
vehicles are not required to take the insurance policy for third party
liability. A surcharge is added to the cost of petrol/diesel and the
FAO 82/2003 & MAC. APP. No.422/2009 Page 32 of 101
amount so collected is sent to Road Accident Fund which is
managed by Road Accident Fund Commission. The Road Accident
Fund Commission manages and disburses the Road Accident Fund.
The Commission also enquires into and makes recommendations
regarding the system for computation and disbursement of
compensation to the victims of road accident. The Commission
also examines the factors responsible for the accidents such as
excessive speed, influence of alcohol, vehicle fitness,
overloading, poor brakes and road environmental conditions
including poor maintenance of road surface and inadequate signs
and markings. The Commission also makes contribution of Fuel
Levy Fund for campaign/programmes to promote road safety. The
South African model system shall also save the cost of manpower
used by Insurance Companies to issue policies.
