Jo took back the phone and told me that bookings for learner’s licence examinations were full until the end of August and even into September, but that he could make a plan to include me on a test scheduled for 5 July. When Natalie handed the phone back to Jo, she could be overheard saying “Sjoe, you’re a businessman, hey?” She told him she was happy with his service and thanked him. When you get here just say, can I speak to Jo. She said Jo had stopped her in the offices’ parking lot and offered to help her. She said that Jo had charged her R300 for a renewal of a licence. While in conversation with me, Jo handed the phone to a client of his called ‘Natalie’. He said he had to pass some of the money on. Jo said that the day before he had charged three men R1,500 each for their learner’s licences but he would do a “favour” for me. I was told that a driver’s licence would cost R2,000 and the two together could be bought for R2,500. Within minutes a bribe of R1,000 was solicited for a learner’s licence. I called Jo enquiring about how to get a learner’s and driver’s licence. The man said he and his wife had refused the offer, but had noted the name of the official – a certain “Jo”. ![]() We were alerted by a tip-off from a Johannesburg man whose wife had failed her learner’s test at the offices three times and, at the last booking, was offered a licence in exchange for a bribe of R1,000. I have been twice to the offices and on both occasions I was offered licences in exchange for bribes. For between R2,500 and R4,300, you can get a learner’s and a driver’s licence from the Randburg Licensing Department – if you are prepared to bribe an official. ![]()
