The N3 down to Durban, then south along the coast. One of the busiest holiday drives in December.

The first plaza, just past Heidelberg.
Mainline plaza on the Free State stretch between Villiers and Harrismith.
Fatigue is the main risk here. Swap drivers or stop if you feel drowsy.
Big 24-hour fuel and food stops just off the N3. Roughly halfway to Durban.
Steep, winding pass into KwaZulu-Natal and a major truck route. Expect slow trucks and breakdowns; don't tailgate.
Thick mist is common on the pass. Snow can close it on cold winter days.
Mainline plaza near Ladysmith.
Mainline plaza near Mooi River.
Long, steep descent into Pietermaritzburg. Slow trucks, and often misty in the morning.
The last N3 plaza, near Pinetown. Queues build before long weekends.
Near Westville, follow signs for the N2 south (Port Shepstone) instead of carrying on into Durban. Get into the right lanes early; it's a busy interchange.
Busy with local traffic and exits close together. Keep a gap and signal early.
The N2 narrows south of Scottburgh in places. Don't overtake on blind rises.
The Umtentweni and Izotsha (Shelly Beach) ramps are tolled.
At Port Shepstone, keep on the coast road for Shelly Beach, Uvongo and Margate. The N2 turns inland toward Kokstad.
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.
