The roads in and around the city tend to be well-maintained and in good condition. The surface of the motorways is also generally smooth with only a few imperfections. Motorways are also quite spacious, which makes driving on them an enjoyable experience. When you venture out into the countryside, you will find the quality of the roads decreases; don’t be surprised to come across potholes and damage. Should you want to drive on an off-road dirt track, then you should assess the situation before proceeding. The terrain can get quite poor, so make sure that your car is up to the job beforehand. It is also recommended that you have a GPS app on your phone to ensure that you don’t get lost.
You will need to have a valid driving licence and a form of photographic ID, such as a passport, to hire a car in this city. If you are not a resident of South Africa, you may also need to provide an International Driver’s Licence. This is normally the case if your licence is printed in a language that isn’t English. You will also need a valid credit card that’s in the main driver’s name. It’s good practice to have your car hire agreement and insurance documents with you at all times, in case you need to share them with law enforcement during a routine police stop or if you’re involved in an accident.
