The 2026 UD Extra Mile Challenge is Here! 🚛

The UD Extra Mile Challenge (UDEMC) is more than just a driving competition—it’s an opportunity to recognise the professionalism, skill and dedication of the drivers who keep Southern Africa moving every day.

If you drive a UD Quon or UD Quester, this is your opportunity to showcase your driving excellence, commitment to safety and passion for the road.

🏆 One outstanding driver will be crowned Southern Africa's champion and earn the honour of representing the continent at the Global UD Extra Mile Challenge Final in Japan.

🚨 𝗟𝗮𝘁𝗲𝘀𝘁 𝘂𝗽𝗱𝗮𝘁𝗲 𝗼𝗻 𝗔𝗔𝗥𝗧𝗢 𝗿𝗼𝗹𝗹-𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝗶𝗻 𝗦𝗼𝘂𝘁𝗵 𝗔𝗳𝗿𝗶𝗰𝗮

28 years after the launch of the Administrative Adjudication of Traffic Offences (AARTO) Act, a presidential proclamation is bringing key operational and administrative sections of the Act into effect across 60 municipalities, alongside Johannesburg and Tshwane. The start date was set as 1 July 2026.

👮 Among other things, the proclamation empowers the Transport Minister to classify traffic violations as minor or major infringements or criminal offences, and to assign the associated penalty points.

🚚 Fleet operators will need to tighten driver behaviour monitoring, infringement management, licence status checks and internal escalation processes, as repeat offences could carry operational consequences.

The licence demerit point system will be rolled out at a later date.

⚠️ The bid by South African Local Government Association (SALGA) to halt the roll-out, based on concerns about municipal funding and readiness, failed when the North Gauteng Court in Pretoria dismissed the case. Companies relying on road-based operations should therefore not delay reviewing their fleet policies, driver training, fine administration and risk controls.
