Oom J commented:
"😭They don’t learn 😭faces and registration numbers are the easiest to get arrested."
Basson Kruger was not impressed:
"This is why SA will remain a third-world lawless country. The examples are set by Government leaders."
Farid Tayob added:
"What we are looking at is a product of government and political leaders in parties rotten to the core. What are people to do?"
Apple User1995001 reflected:
"Insurance for goods on a truck in SA must be astronomical! The way this is just accepted as normal is so depressing."
🇿🇦MAV Hunting Safaris🇿🇦 wondered:
"Stealing is a crime in South Africa, so why are they not arrested? You have their faces on video."
monareng264 remarked:
"A few years back, we had Affirmative Shopping in KZN, and the looters were jailed on video evidence. A few years after the event, as we speak, some are still doing time."
Others were less harsh on the looters:
user9872594029 admitted:
"Nna I would go guys I won't act innocent 😭"
Gerald argued:
"Insurance pays out the load, that's why the public can pick up as much as they want to. They actually help clean the accident side."
