They opened the driver's door and just took out the car keys, then asked why we were driving at night. We said we have a permit and he was already aggressive, he didn't think we'd give him what's right by law, which is the permit.
“By then the other one was like, 'Hey Zodwa be safe, we just saw an accident, which we also saw because we passed two accidents. The other one was busy talking to my driver. Then there was chaos. And the police officer talking to me couldn't calm the other police officer because we were close and had a permit. So they took us to the police station ... they called to say that we were coming.
Zodwa claimed the cops were excited to see her and made comments about how they were going to ''trend”.
