I am driving a motorbike myself.
Unfair to pay the same as a car .

It is not fair for bikers to have to pay the same till fees as cars. Our footprint does not damage the road surface as much as cars do.

Laura van der Westhuizen (West Coast Peninsula, 2025-05-13)

Bikes take up the minority of the trafic on highways and even then bikes are so light that they don't damage the surface. We already also pay tax on the fuel we use to fill up the bikes that goes to fixing the roads so I don't see why it is nesesary to charge us.

As a biker I am being discriminated against, because my motorbike is charged more per wheel or per kilogram than a 56ton truck. That is unfair, and discriminatory.

A Bike is 1/4 of the weight of a car with mostly 1 rider. Thus price can be cut at least by 3/4.

Andre Cronje (Pretoria, 2025-05-13)

Because such small vechiles can not pay the same as cars

The toll gates fees makes it discouraging to travel long distances

Zonique Van der merwe (Benoni, 2025-05-13)

While riding and get to tollgate it's a process for me to remove all gears to take out my cash to pay While motorists are being delayed and hooting on me.

Oupa Chauke (Gauteng, 2025-05-13)

Trucks pay more than sedans and bakkies but bikes must pay same as sedans and bakkies,is unfair and unconstitutional.

Motor cycles are a very convenient mode of transport for the lower income people.

Joe Maitland (Roodepoort, 2025-05-14)

It's unfair to pay the same as a vehicle. Rather encourage the use of motorcycles less congestion

Cobus Snyman (Pretoria, 2025-05-14)

It not fair

Motorcycles are much lighter and cause very little damage to road surface ...

Bikes arent suppose to pay tolfees

Roche Veldsman (Komatipoort, 2025-05-14)

#462

Bikes have 5% of the wear and tear on the road vs a car and trailer. Why do we pay the same price?

Ronald Leach (Polokwane, 2025-05-14)

#464

We regularly travel to Mpumalanga, KZN and Free State.
Costs of toll fees are ridiculous, non-toll roads are in a very bad state, there is no other option but to use toll roads.

Chris Delport (Boksburg, 2025-05-14)

#465

The motor cycle footprint on our toll roads has very little impact on the road maintenance.

Ian Clements (Benoni, 2025-05-14)

#468

My MC biking entails a lot of countrywide trips. These toll fees are exorbitant for the amount of actual tar damage that motorbikes do ( if any damage at all )
Also very awkward for motorcyclists to fiddle and get cards out with gloves on etc at the toll gates

Joe Hattam (Fourways, 2025-05-14)

#474

It's unfair to pay same amount as cars on e-tolls as an unfair practice the weight of the motorcycle and car is not the same moreover the motorcycle doesn't cause the same wear & tear on the road

Bathobatho Mahlangu (Pretoria, 2025-05-14)

Bikers ride weekends 99% of the time, roads are used minimal. Bikes do short rides, very expensive for a short ride. Bikes are not heavy and does not damage the road.

Pierre Marais (Pretoria, 2025-05-14)

The impact a motorcycle has on the road compared to other vehicles are very different.

Morné Steenekamp (Roodepoort, 2025-05-14)

Dis onregverdig om my dieselfde te laat betaal as 'n kombinasie wat 10x my motorfiets se gewig het

Willem Conradie (Pienaarsrivier, 2025-05-14)

#488

I feel it's grossly unfair that our motorcycles are taxed the same as motor vehicles and some trucks, given the impact our vehicles have on the roads.

Charle Koegelenberg (Kimberley, 2025-05-14)

#490

It is just ridiculous to pay the same fee for a motorbike with only 2 wheels as for a taxi or 4x4 or motorcar with 4 wheels...unacceptable

Alta van der Merwe (Volksrust, 2025-05-14)

#491

I don't see why a motorcycle that way less than a trailer should pay for tolls. The practice in other countries are a lane dedicated to motorcycles only.

Anton Henning (Brakpan, 2025-05-14)

#492

It is ridiculous that a motorcycle with zero impact on tarred roads, should pay the same as a 4x4 car and overloaded trailer.

Gideon Devenish (Pretoria, 2025-05-14)

Toll fees for motorcycles are ridiculous

Hannelie Devenish (Pretoria, 2025-05-14)

#510

bikes same as cars a clear overreach

Albertus Bester (Gordon's Bay, 2025-05-14)

#512

It's obviously unfair based on every conceivable metric.

James Thrush (Mbombela, 2025-05-14)

Tollfees are very expensive in Mpumalanga Province it must be reduced to half price, cost of living is too high.

Fikile Evancy Ndlala (Mbombela, 2025-05-14)

I agree that bikes shouldnt pay toll fees

Lebogang Moeng (Taung, 2025-05-14)

#533

Would like tolls to be reduced or scarpped for 2 wheels. As a biker find it unfair we pay the same as a car towing a caravan.
Or give us separate, dedicated lanes at toll gates for bikers only.

Thomas Gilfoy (Brita, 2025-05-14)

To serve the best interest of the biker community

Nico Smith (Bethlehem, 2025-05-14)

I am a biker and totally object to being penalized with tolls that equates to that of a car towing

Gavin Mandelbaum (Gauteng, 2025-05-14)

I agree!

I am a motorcyclist and I oppose being charged toll fees.

David Enslin (Alberton, 2025-05-14)

#552

I disagree to the fact that as a biker I should be paying the same toll fees as what cars are being for in travelling on these toll roads. We should be paying 25% of car fees.

Richard Nicholson (Johannesburg, 2025-05-14)

Unfair high tols for motorcyckes

Other countries respect their road users by offering a lower tariff to motorcyclist which cause more to be willing to pay toll fees which is just fair to everyone

Chantél Scott (Pretoria, 2025-05-15)

#571

It is not fair that we pay the same as a large SUV. We weigh less and do no damage to the roads on 2 wheels.

Christine Spangenberg (Kimberley, 2025-05-15)

#575

I am signing because an alternative for tolling / toll fees for motorcycles needs to be found. The current system is disproportionate to the impact of motorcycles on the roads.

Marius van Jaarsveld (White River, 2025-05-15)

#582

I am a biker and frustrated that we should pay the same toll fees as cars with hardly any impact on the road conditions and 2 wheels and no axles.

Matthew Comins (White River, 2025-05-16)

#585

High toll fees, unsafe and slippery surface at toll gates, unfriendly scanners connot connect with etoll, unfriendly staff, not willing to assist bikers when etoll is not communicating with scanner

Frans Nortje (Pretoria, 2025-05-16)

Tollfees for bikes cannot be same as for car &trailer or even a car

Douglas Murray (Port Edward, 2025-05-16)

#590

Motorcycle cannot be charged the same as cars. They don't damage roads. It is a moneymaking scheme to unfairly charge motorcycles the same as cars.

Ben Nienaber (Pretoria, 2025-05-16)

#592

The fact a motorcycle has to pay the same toll fees as a fully loaded 4x4 with 4 kids inside, towing a trailer is absolute nonsense

Gareth Wright (Dwarskersbos, 2025-05-16)

#593

it is unfair that a average motorcycle weighing about a quarter of an average car's weight should pay the same as a car as they cause no damage to the road surface.

Daniel Vorster (Pretoria, 2025-05-16)

#598

I am signing this as I find a motorcycle that weighs nothing compared to a car or bakkie has to pay the same high prices for toll fees. Thos small wheels on a bike do zero damage to the roads.

Not fair at all.

Charles Burley (Pietermaritzburg, KwaZulu-Natal, 2025-05-16)

Unfair, same price for car with trailor!!!
