ROUTE UPDATE | Peak Summer Holiday Season - December 2024
Vehicle crash types on the N3 Toll Route are stark evidence of general lawlessness on our roads
In as many as 56% of all crashes recorded on the N3 Toll Route between January and October 2024, drivers lost control of their vehicles. The majority of these crashes (84%) occurred in clear weather conditions.
N3 Toll Concession (N3TC), the company managing the N3 Toll Route between Cedara in KwaZulu-Natal and Heidelberg in Gauteng, witnessed a similar pattern during last year’s peak festive season. 59% of all crashes were attributed to drivers who lost control of their vehicles. Head-tail collisions, involving either moving or stationary vehicles, were reported in 14% of the crashes.
