More than 130 people were arrested for drunk driving in eThekwini at the weekend. 


The unit says officers were stationed across central Durban and the rest of the municipality - with thousands of revellers flocking to the city for a number of sporting and social events. 


Spokesperson, Glen Ndlovu says drunk driving is a major issue. 


"Nothing major has been reported in terms of theft or robberies. The sheer fact that we were able to obtain such a large number of stats in terms of drunken driving shows the police presence across the inner city," Ndlovu said.
