AfriForum CEO Kallie Kriel pointed out that, if enough motorists refused to register for the tolls, the system would become impractical, forcing Sanral to reconsider e-tolling. As a result, the system would simply not be cost-effective, he stated, adding that no one was legally obliged to buy an e-tag. AfriForum said it would leave registration for e-tolling up to every member of the public, with due consideration of the costs involved, to decide for themselves whether they wanted to join AfriForum in this civil protest action. If the public accepts e-tolling, an expensive system with high administrative costs, without protest, government will be able to launch similar projects without considering more cost-effective recoupment methods, emphasised Kriel
