The Administrative Adjudication of Road Traffic Offences (AARTO) Act, No. 46 of 1998, is currently piloting in Tshwane and the City of Johannesburg, however, no demerit points may be issued to any individual at this stage. With the national rollout scheduled for early 2010, the implementation of precautionary and practical human resource policies is essential before this legislation affects the operation of business. Under the act, every person starts with zero points and the maximum permissible number of points is twelve, allowing a person to drive until he/she has these twelve points. Every point exceeding the twelve points results in a three-month suspension of the licence card, which is known as a disqualification period.
