A block away from Council, on the corner of White Street and Nicholson Street, is a mini circle. Every day at least one person coming to Council experience problems with drivers who do not know how to use the mini circle, so I have decided to put the correct information on our site - hoping the guilty parties would somehow stumble upon it:

Mini-circles:
Slow down and give way to other vehicles that cross any Yield line before you do.
Proceed in a clockwise direction around the painted island, without driving on it.

In the words of the official South African legislation:
Indicates to the driver of a vehicle approaching a mini circle that he or she shall yield right of way to any vehicle which will cross any yield line at such junction before him or her and which, in the normal course of events, will cross the path of such driver's vehicle and that the driver shall move in a clockwise direction within such junction and attempt not to encroach on the mini-circle.
