Province Spotlight

YOUR PROVINCE,
YOUR RISK.

The CATA and CODETA war over Cape Town's most profitable routes killed more than 15 operators and association leaders in 2025 - routes were closed, thousands of commuters were stranded, and operators were left without income for weeks. Hijackings in the Western Cape are the second highest in the country. E-hailing drivers face fake profile scams and account takeovers. Cape winter adds its own risk on Sir Lowry's Pass and the Huguenot Tunnel - fog, wind, and wet roads that cause accidents regardless of how carefully a driver operates. Tourist and airport shuttle operators also carry a high proportion of foreign passengers, which increases liability exposure.

  • More than 15 taxi operators were killed in Western Cape route violence in 2025, with 10 major routes closed for 30 days. SASRIA cover and loss-of-income protection are directly relevant - if unrest or route closures put your vehicle off the road, you need cover that keeps money coming in. Source: EWN
  • The Western Cape recorded about 1,613 hijackings in H1 2024, second highest nationally. Comprehensive cover with tracking means that if your vehicle is stolen, you are covered for the replacement value and can get back to work without paying out of pocket. Source: SAPS/TimesLive
  • Airport transfer and tourism shuttle operators carry a high proportion of foreign passengers, who may have access to international legal resources if they make a claim. Passenger liability cover protects you from those costs directly and keeps a single incident from threatening your business.
