E-hailing
The KwaZulu-Natal E-Hailing Council and the Phoenix Taxi Association have reached an agreement to work together after an assault on an e-hailing driver. An emergency meeting convened by the Provincial Department of Transport aimed to ease tensions between the two groups. They plan regular meetings to promote peaceful coexistence in the local transport sector.

The National Land Transport Amendment Act, effective from 12 September 2025, has initiated a 180-day period for South Africa's e-hailing sector to comply with new regulations. Platforms like Uber and Bolt must register with the National Public Transport Regulator before drivers can obtain operating licences. With the deadline approaching on 11 March 2026, progress remains slow, risking illegality for thousands of operators.
