New restrictions imposed on Kombis   By Allan Mbotshwa   Minister of Transport and Infrastructure Development, Honourable Felix Mhona has announced stricter regulations for kombis, aiming to reduce the number of fatal accidents caused by reckless driving.  Effective immediately, kombis will be limited to operating within a 60km radius of their designated starting point.
