National Child Protection Week is commemorated in the country annually to raise awareness of the rights of children as articulated in the Constitution of the Republic of South Africa and Children's Act.

Nokuzola Letselebe and Jean Carlo Ongansie of the Department of Transport and Public Works’ Road Safety Management directorate were guests on Expresso, the SABC’s morning television show to speak about children and road safety, particular the lack of using child restraints or child car seats, in cars.
