Bikers Against Tollgate Fees

Comments

Bikes weigh a lot less than cars, SUV's and LDV's. Their impact on any road is significantly less than the mentioned vehicles.

I feel that a Bike must have a lower charge then a car. My wife has her own bike, so if we travel with 2 Bikes, it is rediculous to pay double at tolgates.

I'm against riding motorcycle weighing less than 500kg and being expected to ay the same toll fee as an suv and caravan/trailer weighing a combined 2000-3500 kg. Clearly the impact our vehicles can damage roads is significantly different, then how can we pay the same toll fee?

I’m signing because I oppose equal toll fees for cars n bikes. Bike should be exempted or pay less

Jonas Beesnaar (Centurion, 2025-05-04)

Bikes are more eco friendly and eases traffic congestion. If toll fees gor bikes is a must i believe it should havebits own class and not classified woth vehicles

I will not pay the same fees than vehicles, also not for toll roads so unsafe for bikers. The N17 is a nightmare and very expensive.
Special gates for bikers witb low fees to none.

Toll gates has to be free to bikers

Eddy Mashego (Bushbuckridge, 2025-05-04)

A bike has almost zero impact on the road. Why are they paying the same as a heavy SUV with a caravan in tow?

Warren Rocchi (Johannesburg, 2025-05-04)

It's unnecessary for bikers to pay tollgate.. Especially the if it's the same price as a vehicle

Ilze Pretorius (Northam, 2025-05-04)

There is no possible reason why motorbikes should be charged anywhere near the same cost as motorcars.

Johannes Fourie (Durban, 2025-05-04)

It doesn't make sense.

Mokete Malefane (Pretoria, 2025-05-04)

Definitely agree toll fees for riding a bike too expensive

Melanie Mccallaghan (Centurion, 2025-05-04)

#438

It is the right thing to do.

Joshua Bennett (Pretoria, 2025-05-04)

#444

I feel that bikes weigh much less than any other vehicles, this is proven by the difference in disc fees between bikes and cars, bikes shouldn't be paying tolls at all.

Lisa Quluba (Cape Town, 2025-05-04)

2Wheels should be less than car toll fees

Gert Booysen (Krugersdorp, 2025-05-04)

I’m a Biker and travel long distances and most of my travel expenses go to tollgates. When I’m done planning my trips I always have to double my travel budget for tollgates and I f**king hate it. as I’ve had to cancel a few trips due to tollgates as a few times I’ve sat next to the road waiting for a friend to send me money for tollgates fees

Michael De Villiers (Johannesburg, 2025-05-04)

The toll fees for bikers is unfair. Bikers should pay far less or no fee at all looking at the size of the bike and it's weight

Dumisani Nyoni (Johannesburg, 2025-05-04)

#461

I feel the price is not standard as a vehicle license is much more expensive, why should we bikes pay the same for the Tollgate as a motor vehicle,our bike license is not even close to a motor vehicle..THATS NOT RIGHT

Shereen Bezuidenhout (Lydenburg, 2025-05-04)

Insane tollgate tarrifs on motorcycles

Tshepo Masilo (Pretor, 2025-05-04)

#463

2 wheels and much lighter weight cannot pay same as car and trailer

Ginny Crerar (Pretoria, 2025-05-04)

I am a biker, and make use of Tollgates.

Chris Weideman (Caledon, 2025-05-04)

This so unfair....

Lwazi Fundam (Uitenhage, 2025-05-05)

I will not pay for any tolll

Wynie Rossouw (Johannesburg, 2025-05-05)

#469

Will not pay. It is wrong

Marius Potgieter (Swartklip, 2025-05-05)

#470

I'm a biker. Our bikes are so light on the road compared to vehicles. In other countries bikes have dedicated non-pay lanes. Furthermore we hold up cars at the gate because it is cumbersome to take off your gloves, open zips etc

Bonsai Jansen van Vuurem (Pretoria, 2025-05-05)

#471

We need lower pricing as we are less likely to damage roads that we use as we are in a compleatly different weight class

Victor Kirton (Lydenburg, 2025-05-05)

#476

I'm a biker and think paying the same as cars / mini busses / LDV's with trailers or caravans are ridiculous!!

Sandi Cronje (Pretoria, 2025-05-05)

#477

Because we are being ripped off. A light vehicle can never be classified with heavier vehicles the same way cars don't pay what trucks and busses pay

Solly Kubeka (Sasolburg, 2025-05-05)

#478

Road taxes are already collected in the fuel price.... Bikes weigh a quarter of cars... Unfair taxes

Michael Paul (Benoni, 2025-05-05)

#480

Our bikes weigh significantly less than a motor vehicle, and have half the contact points with the road, why must we pay the same price?

Warren Tubb (Pretoria, 2025-05-05)

#484

I’m against high toll fees

Josephine Lenake (Vanderbijlpark, 2025-05-05)

#487

Toll charges for motorcycles are ridiculous when compared to other vehicles and the potential damage they may cause to road surfaces.

Carel Smit (Pretoris, 2025-05-05)

#488

I dont believe the fees are fair considering the size or rather weight of the vehicles

Tumisang Moruledi (Hartbeespoort, 2025-05-05)

#489

Unfair pricing.

Vuyo Yoko (Uitenhage, 2025-05-05)

#490

If the tolls are based on vehicle mass and /or potential road wear, how is it that a vehicle that has a mass of 300 kg pays the same toll as a motor car with caravan and a boat with combined mass of 3000kg.
A car has wheel point load of at least 500 kg whilst a bike has at best 200 kg.
Makes no sense and there is no justification for this. Thus has been a contentious matter for at least 15 years and our pleas have fallen on deaf ears and ignored.

Rod Parker (Edenvale, 2025-05-05)

#491

The unfair fees charged to motorcyclists. Bikes are max 20% weight of cars.

Martin Pelser (Johannesburg, 2025-05-05)

#496

I ride a motorcycle as a daily runner. When travelling long distances I have to consider either paying the toll for a safe ride or taking the unpaid route at great risk to myself. Most travelled route is between eMalahleni and Middelburg ±25km, free but extremely dangerous with the trucks and bad road on the R555 or R78+ on the N4... Way too expensive to take often

Oliver Bostock (eMalahleni, 2025-05-05)

#497

We are being charged the same amount as cars

David Netshilonga (Pol, 2025-05-05)

#501

I do not agree with the tollgate rates that is so hi for motorcycle, a motorcycles weight is +- 15% of a car and uses half the road of cars, it is not fair to pay the same price as a car, trucks and cars do not pay the same amount, how can motorcycles and cars pay the same when it depends on the weight and not only that but four wheels compared to two wheels on a motorcycle.

Bertus Nolte (Witbank, 2025-05-05)

#502

I’m a biker. Fees are unfare

Cobus Bodenstein (Pretoria, 2025-05-05)

This is not acceptable the roads not good and have to pay more for what

Elize Fourie (Pretoria, 2025-05-05)

#511

I travel often and the prices are ridiculously

Lance Blake (PortElizabeth, 2025-05-05)

#512

I find thr billing sructure totally unreasonable toward motorcyclists, the weight of a motorcycle compared to other vehicles is not comparable.

Dean Gilbert (Jeffreys Bay, 2025-05-05)

#514

Two wheels should pay less

Jacques Coetzee (Evander, 2025-05-05)

#515

Bikes should pay way less than other vehicles

Billy Du Plessis (Middelburg, 2025-05-05)

#516

I'm a biker and bikes are not as big as normal cars and should not pay the same amount

Hennie Bousema (Swartklip, 2025-05-05)

#517

It is a pain to get billed the same, yet the weight is 10% of that of a small car.
Bikes do not break down next to the road, needing help.

Christian Kuschke (Midrand, 2025-05-05)

#519

I support this cause to NOT impose toll fees for biker riders.

Corrie Pistorius (Pretoria, 2025-05-05)

#522

It is ridiculous that a bike with 2 wheels must pay the same toll money as a car with 4 wheels and a trailer or caravan with 2 or 4 wheels. No wonder bikers skip the toll gates

Corne Swiegers (Rustenburg, 2025-05-05)

#524

I'm a biker and is unfair to pay the same amount as big cars

Julia Senoelo (Rustenburg, 2025-05-05)

#525

I feel it is unfair for a motor cyclest to pay the same tollfees as for motorists, as a motorcycle weighs a fraction of a motor car. Motorcycles do much less “damge” to the road than other vehicles.

Willem Mell (Rustenburg, 2025-05-05)

#529

I'm signing this because motorcycle's have 2 wheels and weigh a fraction of an average sedan. Give bike's there own category.

Jack Rhodes (Settlers, 2025-05-05)

Am a biker

Moyahabo Ramaboya (Polokwane, 2025-05-05)

High cost of toll fees

Victor Msomi (Durban, 2025-05-05)

#537

I believe we all have the right to stand up. tollgates against bikers is harsh. Why can't the biker community and the road safty come to agreement on a small amount

Sanmarie Kotze (Wtb, 2025-05-06)

#540

It is redicilous to charge motorcycles a fee as a motorcycle does not damage a road

Adolf Mattheus (Pretoria, 2025-05-06)

#543

We are not paying for etolls

Kholofelo Bapela (Polokwane, 2025-05-06)

#545

It is unfair that a motorbike pay the same as a heavy car and caravan. There is no way a bike causes same damage to the road as a car.

Nellie Snooke (Witbank, 2025-05-06)

#546

Because two wheels does not weigh as much as trucks and motorcars.

Pieter Jonker (Middelburg, 2025-05-06)

#547

Motorcycles should not pay the same toll fees as cars towing caravans because they are much smaller, lighter, and cause less damage to roads. Cars with caravans are heavier, take up more space, and slow down traffic more. Charging motorcycles the same is unfair and doesn’t make sense. A fair system would charge vehicles based on their size and impact on the road.

Marius Maidment (Caledon, 2025-05-06)

#555

I'm signing because of the unfairness of the charge per weight. A bike and an SUV with a caravan cannot possibly be in the same weight category

Kagiso Moumakoe (Pretoria, 2025-05-06)

#556

It's unfair to pay for 4 wheels if we only use 2 on the road

Len Aspeling (Naboomspruit, 2025-05-06)

Tollgate fees for bikers are ridiculous

Hennie Viljoen (Secunda, 2025-05-06)

Nicci Coertze (Rietfontein, 2025-05-06)

I find it unfair to toll bikes the same as motor cars. They should be tolled a third of the motor vehicle toll.

Cyril Wegner (Vanderbijlpark, 2025-05-08)

A motorcycle does the leaast amount of damage to any road yet is the most targeted vehicle on all roads

Erica van Vuuren (Parys, 2025-05-08)

#585

I sign this petition because it is not fair for us bikers to pay the same money as a taxi with a trailer fulle packed or a car with a caravan. Bikes do not damage the surface.

Derick Harley (Sasolburg, 2025-05-09)

#586

Even our tolgate road are unsafe for bikes. Loads of crap, holes and trucks and we do no damages to road.. Unsafe to stop even with all the oil at the tolgate. But we have to pay same rates.. I say we should all go pay with 10cent coins and build up the traffic big time.. This will get more attention. Make them count.

Mark . (Kzn, 2025-05-10)

i ride a motorcycle too and dont comprehend the tariff prescribed at toll gates to motorcycles. Should be FREEE for motorcycles

Melvyn Bloy (Florida, 2025-05-10)

#589

I as a biker need a seperate license than a car, thus the same should apply for the toll fees!

Hanre Brits (Sandton, 2025-05-10)

It is unfair that motor cycle riders have to pay the same fees as cars and do not have the same footprint on our roads.

Ian Clements (Benoni, 2025-05-11)
