RTIA Hits the Road in Limpopo for AARTO Public Awareness Campaign
The Road Traffic Infringement Authority (RTIA), in partnership with South African Post Service (SAPO) and the Limpopo Department of Transport and Community Safety is bringing essential Administrative Adjudication of Road Traffic Offences (AARTO) services directly to motorists and communities. Running from 19 to 21 August 2026, this three-day roadshow activation spans across Limpopo stretching from Mogalakwena to Tzaneen and Polokwane.
The road users will be assisted to check their AARTO infringement status and are advised on how to resolve the same AARTO infringements by selecting from the available legislated elective options.
