Johannesburg / Fairlands
N1 / Beyers Naude
I was a victim of a smash and grab on the Beyers Naude offramp. There are two scruffy looking men who pose as beggars. One will distract you while the other will scrutinise your car and if anything of value is visible, one of them will smash the window and take whatever is there and then run down the embankment. It is quite dark so please be aware of that intersection. Thanks Ines.
