New security at Kruger gates...

[nan]

what good news

[Tent dweller]

This is really heartening news - terrific!

And anyone who gets hot and impatient waiting on busy days, I can only say...too bad, so sad; cry me a river; toughen up princess; build a bridge and get over it...

Hope those guys take no s*** from anybody!

You get my drift.

Why so aggressive?

It was about time!

Same here people complain about speeding and crime etc and when something is done that's positive no one should complain and just chill

I think this is a good thing, but sniffer dogs are the only solution as it’s not practical to search every car in holiday season. If I have just driven from KZN and have to wait behind 30 day visitors and then offload my car for a search I’m not going to be jumping with joy.

It’s not a border post, so sniffer dogs should make things quicker

[Richprins]

Yup!

[Sprocky]

I am for full search of every vehicle, as well as using sniffer dogs, metal detectors and whatever other means there is of checking a car for contraband.

Do we want tighter security at the gates or not?

I understand Sprocky, but one needs to be practical about it. My bakkie is full to the roof on a KNP visit. It will take them half an hour of offload my car and another half an hour to pack it back so that it all fits again.

I will crack a beer, watch and jump up and down when they break something, which will probably happen 1 in a 100 cars.

90% of the bakkies heading to Moz have the same problem, but on a slightly larger scale. They have car tyres, second hand cyanide containers from a mine for drinking water, garden furniture from our gardens, a few rhino horn, six passengers in amongst the "freshish" vegetables, and enough sheet metal and cardboard to make Soweto look like a scale model.

They also have a destination to reach, they have paid their way apparently, and we call for selective security??

One size fits all, either we live with it or live without what we go there for!!!
