Two different commutes: the Soweto Highway straight into town for the CBD, or the N1 Western Bypass north for Sandton and the northern suburbs.
Loading driver reports…
The Soweto Highway has bus-only lanes in both directions. Stay out of them; they're enforced.
Minibus taxis pull in and out without warning near stops and intersections. Keep a gap and watch the car two ahead.
Big matches and concerts at Nasrec back up the Soweto Highway for hours. Check the events calendar.
The Soweto Highway leads to Booysens, just south of the CBD. Plan which street you'll take into town before you get there.
Join the N1 north and stay in the middle lanes; the left lane slows at every on-ramp.
The bypass is often stop-start from Roodepoort past Randburg on weekday mornings. Allow extra time.
William Nicol and Rivonia exits serve Sandton. Move left early; late lane changes cause many crashes here.
During power cuts, treat dead traffic lights as a four-way stop and watch for cars that don't.
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.
