This is a well-constructed and academically sound research report probing the holistic scope of crime-related phenomena pertaining to the public transport industry and modes it represents in South Africa. The basic research findings are therefore significant to a broad variety of stakeholders and users of the public transport industry in general. From a development and tuitional point of view the report may serve as additional study material to final year social science students, especially in the fields of criminology, sociology and criminal justice studies as well as police management, traffic safety services and security management. The report is especially useful to university students whose development are facilitated in terms of the investigation and analyses of social problems —specifically as an example of how a social problem can be researched and possible outcomes ascertained.
