PRINCETON SECURITY AVOID RESPONSIBILITY & LIABILITY & HIDE BEHIND THEIR CROOKED INSURANCE
In March a Princeton Security vehicle knocked into my car. Their driver crossed into 3 oncoming lanes of traffic & proceeded to ram into my vehicle. Their driver made a false statement , saying I knocked into him, & was backed up by their control room manager. I then provided the photos of the accident [ which is pretty damning & clear ] to one of the Directors, Mr Carstens. They then admitted fault & liability & advised that their insurance would deal with it. Their insurance advised to get a letter from my insurance so that I would not claim & advised that they would deal with it. After 2 1/2 months of back & forth, ducking & diving, legal loopholes & avoiding responsibility, their insurance [ RENASA ] deemed it fit to apportion some blame on ME [ this after Princeton admitted fault & liability ] & pay out 70% of the value of my vehicle repair. This is a shortfall of R17 000 [ please note that the Princeton vehicle has been repaired & I am still sitting without my car ]. I again contacted Princeton Security & they then advised to discuss with their insurance & accept the highest offer I could get. How is this response deemed acceptable ?? Why must I pay out of pocket for an accident that was not my fault ?? They seem to think it is fine to wash their hands of liability & hide behind their insurance. All I wanted was for Princeton Security to DO THE RIGHT THING. All I wanted was for my vehicle to be repaired. It seems doing the right & ethical thing is beyond this company. Please check & search on Facebook for Princeton Group/Security & Renasa as I will be posting the photos on all platforms

Vehicles are dangerous to other road users.
This evening I was riding my motorcycle over the mountain pass of Ou Kaapse Weg in Cape Town, when a Princeton vehicle marked "guarding" came roaring up behind me, following dangerously close behind me. His white rooftop lights were on, so I figured he must be responding to an emergency, and when it was safe, I let him pass. Despite being so pushy, he remained in front of me because of the other traffic going the same way. This is where I have the biggest problem. His rooftop bar lights were shining incredibly bright white LED's - brighter than a car's high beams, at eye level, and facing backwards. This is not only dangerous but also illegal in a number of ways - most importantly that white lights indicate oncoming headlights or reverse lights and should never be visible on a vehicle that is travelling away from you. Of course, if this was visibly a diffused white bar on top of the car like with other armed response services, that would be one thing, but these lights are two separate clusters of white LED's towards the outer edges of the car, just like headlights. This is confusing and dangerous to other traffic, and not only that, but it is incredibly dangerous for a motorist driving behind this vehicle, because one is permanently looking into a set of high beam headlights while driving on an incredibly dark, curvy mountain pass. I am very angry about this blatant disregard for other people's safety.
