Travelling along the national highway can sometimes be dangerous because of big potholes. The road conditions are not as good as expected. There were a lot of traffic accidents during the last holiday season, so beware of the road conditions and some crazy drivers on the road. The same goes for down from the border of Swaziland to Durban.

Beware of the huge excess you'll have to pay on your hire car if you bump into one of the murderous holes in the tarred roads. The roads are much worse than those in South Africa - you should be prepared when you enter through the border gates.
