No injuries following blaze at Welkom Traffic Centre    | News Article

The Free State Department of Police, Roads, and Transport says it is all systems go at the Welkom Traffic Department’s testing station. This, after three vehicles caught fire on Wednesday.


Spokesperson Hillary Mophethe says the testing station is fully operational this morning and she confirms all services are available. She says the three vehicles caught fire when the blaze that started outside the station's yard, expanded to their yard. In a response to OFM News’ inquiry, Mophethe stated that “these vehicles have been at our station for more than six years and their owners have not made an attempt to collect them”. She confirms no other properties were damaged, nor were any injuries reported.
