After it was upheld in the Constitutional Court on July 12 2023, AARTO’s controversial new laws are set to come into effect countrywide on 1 July 2024. However, Cape Town plans to snub AARTO laws, says JP Smith, the mayoral committee member for safety and security in the Western Cape. That’s correct, the Western Cape Government hopes to avoid their implementation within its area of jurisdiction. It will, according to reports, make use of AARTO speed enforcement protocols only. But all other violations will be dealt with by the relevant local municipalities in the Western Cape. Plans from Cape Town to snub AARTO laws comes by virtue of recent legislative amendments. These allow municipalities to select whether they use pre-existing or new AARTO laws. Such a scenario is allowed when provincial or municipal by-laws cover the same enforcements, says Smith.
