In a video shared by a tweep in the early hours of Tuesday 9, November, a traffic officer was seen engaging in a fist fight with a taxi driver in Khayelitsha, Cape Town.
While the video leaves a dozen unanswered questions after watching it, what is crystal clear is the road official’s uniform and his combat opponent having a full go at each while the motorists drove by closely.
The road rules enforcer is seen grabbing the taxi driver’s blue top off before charging into him with a fist swing next to the road. The two fighters then took the battle right into the middle of the road.
Seconds later the fight got disbanded by a group of three men who stepped in to hold back the traffic officer’s fight in Khayelitsha.
