A man shared a video of himself saying that they were about to pass a tollgate that cost R118.
Tollgate fees are paid to maintain, operate and improve toll roads and service the debt fee used to implement toll roads, says Arrive Alive.
The video shared by a wedding filmmaker under his account @ndamulelombuwe, gained a lot of interaction after he was shocked about the price of the Machado Plaza tollgate in Mpumalanga.
In the video that is captioned, “Is this the most expensive tollgate in South Africa?” the guy expresses his shock. He explained, “We are going to shoot a cinematic wedding invite, three round dovel in Gaskop so we have a beautiful cinematic wedding inviting coming up.”
“But now I have an R118 tollgate that I need to pay, and I am not looking forward to it, I am not acting I am not,” he added.
