Haibo: Mzansi people in disbelief and react to lazy work on road marking

In a previous post, Briefly News reported that social media users are amazed as they look at a photo of road marks that went wrong. The social media account holder is not happy with how one of the streets is marked.

The photo shows a road marking or a barrier line that was not properly painted and many social media users feel the workers were just lazy.

Although it remains unclear where the road is located, the post by @Lindz_Malindz has attracted so many reactions.
