Yesterday whilst in traffic, had to take this pic, saw a taxi driving in the lane that goes in the opposite direction. These guys are bullies, he went the whole mile untill the next intersection.

Dont forget to check you mirrors when changing lanes, we still need you alive cause after all...it's a wonderful world!

Gas retailers 'knew' about price caps

42 minutes ago Francois Williams

Cape Town - LPG  retailers had no excuse for claiming the price regulations had caught them unawares, said Muzi Mkhize, chief director: hydrocarbons at the department of energy.

Talks about  regulating the LPG price had been on the go since 2006 and retailers had been given enough time to prepare for the new pricing.

On Wednesday certain liquid petroleum gas (LPG) retailers refused to reduce their prices, despite the department's announcement that from July 14 LPG at the coast could not be sold for more than R15.69/kg. In Gauteng LPG may no longer be sold for more than R17.27/kg.

Until Wednesday, LPG prices had been unregulated and dealers were able to charge whatever they wished, as long as the consumer was prepared to pay.

William Solliez, the managing director of Easigas, an LPG distributor that is part of Shell, said Easigas dealers and distributors were obliged to comply with the new price regulations and act within the law.

A Somerset West reader reported that on Wednesday two LPG distributors in the area had said that they were still charging the same prices.

People who suspect that they are being overcharged for gas can phone Ngwako Kekana at the department's compliance office, on 011 444 4180, or email him at ngwako.kekana@energy.gov.za.

Yeow...

Ey there,

Cant wait to have that price drop as I am travelling up and down these days, tell me, im sure you must also be chasing opportunities and have been hit hard in your pocket? Tell me about it. I'l tell you shortly about the fuel decrease.

If you are a smoker please stop throwing your stompies (cigar butts) out the window. Personally I fill up the tyres with Nitrogen so you can imagine the risk thereof.

I will take a pick of you if you are going to smoke and throw that junk out the window. Motorists should learn to use their car-ashtrays

UBER SWAG!!!

The £17million yacht that comes with its own supercar (but be quick, there are only going to be six of them) As far as freebies go a luxury supercar has got to be near the top of the list. But then if you're already forking out £17million for a 122ft state-of-the-art super-yacht you wouldn't really expect anything less. This ultimate buy one-get-one-free offer has recently gone on the market attracting attention from billionaires all over the world. Double trouble: The incredible super-yacht comes with its own supercar which can be stored on board But even if you could afford to buy the exclusive boat, you'd have to order sharpish, as the company are only making six models and has already attracted five possible buyers in the first week on the market. The luxury yacht possesses a luxurious Art Deco interior, boasts four large, double state rooms, a reception area, salon, 52' LED TV's and sate-of-the art sound systems in every room - all of which can be personalised. And you will never be short of thrills as the ship can reach top speeds of 43 knots, with its twin MTU 16V000 engine, with the ability to achieve 55 knots with its optional Rolls Royce KaMeWa boosters offering a staggering 14,000hp. But not to be outdone, the super car, which is powered by a 880hp twin turbo V12 engine has a top speed of 375kmh. This artist's impression shows the matching supercar rolling off the docked £17million yacht Like a Bond villain's den, the interior of the superyacht as decorated in an Art Deco style. The design can be changed to suit the individual buyer You can even park your new car on board the impressive boat in its very own garage, located at the stern of the ship. Founder of the Swedish company Strand Craft, Kurt Strand said they had built the boat and car for the 'very wealthy'. He said: 'We have had a lot of interest from all over the world, specifically the Middle East, it was designed for luxury and for people who want the best. 'The custom made super car is the best feature, both the boat and the car are very high performance and the boat is very fast. 'It is very unique and we are making it in limited numbers, so it's exclusive, we are only making six. 'It has a very futuristic design and nothing like this has ever been made before. It even has bullet proof windows.'   The gigantic yacht easily dwarfs the waiting supercar on the dock The yacht has room on the deck at the back to soak up the sun, and pose for paparazzi Crashing through the waves the yacht can hit speeds of up to 43 knots Mr Strand said that they would sell the duo on a first come, first serve basis, and said the new owner would need to be wealthy to afford it. 'We have already had five people interested in it and we will have meetings with them next week,' he added. 'It's a very expensive boat to produce, it will be the most exclusive in the world. 'It's very good that this design has found so much interest from clients. This comes off some circulating e-mails, Just something to get your mind off the traffic for this afternoon, and don't forget. Urber Swagg!! have a safe drive... Magik
