It is a ripoff for bikers to pay toll gatesMoya Schoon (Mokopane, 2025-02-24)

The system is bias and doesnt take into account the balanced wear anf tesr on our roads. How can they charge motorbikes the samr price as a 4x4 vehicle towing a caravan ?Graeme Van Bergen (Johannesburg South, 2025-03-04)

I do not understand the reason for a motorbike being charged the same a a car or a car with trailer or a caravan. The friction and weight from a motorcycle is far less than the above mentioned.Make a motorcycle cheaper than a normal vehicle

Quite a large percentage of bikers commute through tollgates daily. The reason being non-tolgate roads not being maintained and are a big risk with lots of potholes.A motorbike can carry only one or two people. The combined average weight is less than 200kg. Four wheeled, or more, vehicles can take much bigger occupant loads/cargo loads starting at, minimum 800kg+. The wear impact on road surfaces, by motorbikes, are far less than that of other vehicles.
If a total vehicle count is done daily, the numbers will show that there are far less motorbikes than other vehicles going through tollgates.
In Europe, there is a special bike lane for motorbikers to pass through. They do not pay any toll whatsoever.

A motorcycle had two wheels where a motor vehicle had four wheels. A motor vehicle weight more then a motorcyclePieter Engelbrecht (Polokwane, 2025-03-13)

motorcycles weighs less than caravans and some trailers which are towed behind cars and bakkies and motorcycles with 2 wheels has to pay the same. Motorcycles does not contribute to potholes and road congestion.Kobus Kotze (Pretoria, 2025-04-30)

The toll fees are very expensiveNicholus Dube (Waterval boven, 2025-05-01)

The fareness of toll fees against bike riders over all is outrages taking into concideration the impact of damage being done on roads comared to cars trucks end other heavy equipment on the roads. Motor cycles over all dont really have an impact on road surfaces. Our licence fees covers more than enoughWikus Jansen van Vuuren (Meyerton, 2025-05-01)

Make no sense that bike weighing 250kg pay same as 3 ton cruiser with 2 ton caravan/camp trailerChristo Stoltz (Nelspruit, 2025-05-01)
#217
2 wheels versus 4 wheels should not have to pay the same. My husband rides a motorbike and we often go out with both the motorbike and car, and it gets sooooo expensiveMichelle Havemann (Nelspruit, 2025-05-01)

I deem it not fair to have motorcycles pay the same tarrif as motor vehicles with trailers which causes damage to roadways due to their weight and the number of wheels on the surfice. Motorcycles are light weight with only two wheels and maximum two people making the cost per vehicle occupents exaggering compared to the other vehicles paying the same rates. No fees should be charged for motorcycles.Johnny Treurnich (Mbombela, 2025-05-01)

Toll fees are way too high.. ..Bheki E Langa (Barberton, 2025-05-02)

I’m signing because it is daylight robbery to pay that amount for a bike. I feel it's not fair for 2 wheels to pay the same price as for 4 wheels, our 2 wheels are paying the same as motorists with 4 wheels…… Why should bikers pay so much for toll fees?Hendrik Swart (Parow, 2025-05-02)

My motorcycle is not even a quarter of the weight of a 4 wheel car, why should I pay the same fee???Maria Magdelena aka Marianne Pearce (Centurion, 2025-05-02)

The cost is unseasonably high vis a vis the wear and tear on the surface. Bikers contribute to the tourism industry of the provinces they travel through.Helen Thrush (Mbombela, 2025-05-02)

I'm signing because the toll fees for Bikers are unnecessary as bikes don't add any wear and tear on the road surface. They must make Bike slipway.Sibusiso Nkosi (Pretoria, 2025-05-02)

The current e-toll system with regards to motorcycles is totally unjustified and unfair. I hereby petition the authorities to find an alternative, fair and just system to accommodate motorcycles using toll roads.Willie Du Toit (Benoni, 2025-05-02)

It is crazy to pay so much for a bike ... which has no influence on the roadPoelie van der Poel (Oudtshoorn, 2025-05-02)

Put two fingers together.. now thats how much of my Tyre's are making contact on the road. And I'm paying the same as big ass bakkie that's towing a 3 bed room caravanVincent De coning (Vanderbijlpark, 2025-05-02)

I'm signing this because you can't charge a bike the same fee as cars and cars with trailers.Richardt Rabe (Pretoria, 2025-05-02)
#261
I ride a motorcycle, which weight is a fraction of most vechiles and takes up so little space. Motorcycles also lessen the traffic load. Paying the same price as a vechile incl a trailer or caravan is rediculous as a motorcycle can fit inside of the caravan or on a trailer with ease.Corné Victor (Meyerton, 2025-05-02)
#262
It is dangerous for a bike to stop at the tolls due to the oil on the road at the stopping spot. The high price is way too highBruce Littlefield (Port Elizabeth, 2025-05-02)

I am a regular motorbike rider in both Johannesburg and Cape Town. I ride because it an economical means of transport but to be charged toll fees at the same rate as a heavy family car towing a caravan is ridiculous. Bikers should have a dedicated free of charge lane on all national toll roads.Nigel Bailes (Cape Town, 2025-05-02)
#268
I also ride a bike and I feel it is unfair and also wrong for the government to keep stealing money. The roads are not good for any vehicle and bikes take less space on the roads that them government funeral circusVictor Bronkhorst (Vereeniging, 2025-05-02)

The "damage" to the road surface caused by a motorcycle is minimal compared to a motorvehicle therefore to levy a charge equal to a motorvehicle for motorcycles is grossly unfair.Peter Kingsley (Margate, 2025-05-02)

I am a biker. It is unfair to pay the same as a car. A car can take 4- 6 people. Me and my husband ride each 1 our own bike. Now we have to pay, per person, the same as a car that can take 4- 6 people. This is unfairLeonie Ludick (Vereeniging, 2025-05-02)

It is not fair and does not make sense that a motorcycle must pay the same toll fees as cars. Most cars also have 3 passengers plus driver where most motorcycles only have a rider.Bernd Annas (Cape Town, 2025-05-02)
#281
It's absolutely crazy that a bike with max 2 people on pay the same as a taxi with 16 plus people inside or a SUV with 8 persons towing a big ass caravan and a trailer behind that.HW Huyser (Centurion, 2025-05-02)

I agree with what was said, motorbikes are also much lighter and do not put as much stress on the roads as compared to cars and trucks therefore if there is a toll fee then it should be significantly less.Matthew Opperman (Durban, 2025-05-03)

As a Biker myself, i can not see the justification in paying the same for my 200kg motorcycle as a 2.8ton SUV. As the impact on infrastructure is not the same.Sanett Roetz (Amanzimtoti, 2025-05-03)

It's beyond illogical to expect a motorcycle to pay the same fee as four wheeled vehicles with much more gross weight!! ...then again the half-wits at SANRAL are out of touch with reality...just like the half-wits governing this country...Kevin Siebert (Cape Town, 2025-05-03)

It's a long story but I'll try keep it short. When traveling with a Kia k2700 bakkie you get charged the fee of a light truck (it has double wheels at the back) they say it's per wheel. If that Kia is pulling a double axel trailer you get charged the price of a large truck.By that logic my motorcycle should pay half of a cars fee because it only has 2 wheels. SANRAIL must choose a standard and stick with it. Iv had this argument with them many times but alas it's futile.

Toll fees for motorcycles should be scrapped completely as the precentage road surface being utilized does not justify paying the same as an Automobile.Johan Swanepoel (Centurion, 2025-05-04)

I’m signing because even a large motorbike weighing 400kg comes nowhere near the weight of a small car. Smaller bikes are even less. So it’s only fair that they pay way less than a car. More bikers might pay if the toll was fair..!!Mark Berger (Johannesburg, 2025-05-04)
