A long day: N1 through the Free State, then quieter single-lane roads through the Karoo and down to the coast.
This guide was written for Johannesburg to Gqeberha. The same roads apply on your trip, but read exits, merges and lane tips the other way round.

The junction is about 45 km from Gqeberha, which lies to the west of it.
Two passes south of Cradock. Winding with slow trucks; take them in daylight.
Last big town for fuel and food before the coast.
The N9 and N10 carry trucks on single carriageway. Overtake only with a long, clear view.
The N9 leaves the N1 just southwest of Colesberg. Follow the signs for Middelburg.
Fill up here before turning onto the N9.
Main fuel stop on the way to Bloemfontein.
Grasmere (south of Joburg), Vaal (near Parys) and Verkeerdevlei (near Brandfort).
Passengers only, or once you've stopped. Never while driving.
A tap posts the hazard and road. To add the lane, how bad it is or a tip, use "Add a detailed report" further down.
Your location is only used when you tap a button that asks for it. Reports show it rounded to about 100 m, never your exact spot. You can always type the road instead.
