The Administrative Adjudication of Road Traffic Offences (AARTO) has been slated to come into operation on 1 July this year but so far the government and the Road Traffic Infringement Agency – the agency responsible for AARTO – have communicated little about the implementation. In this episode of AA Connect, Layton Beard speaks to transport specialist Rob Handfield-Jones from driving.co.za about AARTO, the reasons why government wants to implement it, and what is happening with the planned roll-out.

Older Adults often need specialised care and attention, especially those who live alone. This can be stressful, particularly for children who still provide care but who are not always available in emergency situations. In this episode of AA Connect we speak to expert caregiver Suzette du Preez of TruCare Age-Well Solutions about safety and security options for older adults. AA CEO Willem Groenewald joins us to discuss the AA’s new Rem-i Amica, a standalone, GSM-enabled panic button – a small device that can be worn or carried by an older adult – providing peace-of-mind through immediate emergency medical and security response services at the push of a button.
