A. A Metropolitan Municipality in South Africa is a democratically elected local government that is responsible for the "management" of a certain economic area. This includes the delivery and management of basic services like water, electricity, social and old age grants, traffic control, maintenance and care of public property etc etc. Helen Zille, the leader of the Democratic Alliance, is the mayor of Cape Town and was fairly recently voted the best mayor in the world.

A. Depends on the city. With most larger metropolitan departments, they are too busy answering emergency calls for service to write reports. Most larger departments now have civilians taking minor police report. Emergency calls range from vehicle accidents to murders.

Running in the metropolitan area of Los Angeles is dangerous for my health?
Q. I try to run around the USC campus which is pretty close to the downtown. There are lots of cars passing and constructions going on. Plus Los Angeles as a whole, is notorious for smog and air pollution. But I don't want to run indoors because I originally come from a very clean, quiet, and small town near Seattle, Washington, and I'm used to running outside.

A. 1: Don't run on the Santa Monica Freeway. If you do watch for cars. a little more seriously, now... 2: Stay Hydrated. The climate in the region is quite dry and you will probably notice the difference while exercising. 3. Watch for visible pollution, tune into local air quality reports and websites to find out where the air is cleaner.
