While South Africa enjoyed the Women’s Day long weekend, cold weather descended on much of the country, bringing rain, snow, and other adverse conditions. As always, this creates dangerous driving conditions that are especially worrisome today, as many return to work and once again fill up the roads. “Snow and ice remain rare enough in South Africa that few drivers ever build up real experience handling them. That means the fundamentals matter every time conditions turn, whether that’s rain, ice or snow,” says MasterDrive CEO, Eugene Herbert. Black ice is another factor that we don’t usually think of in South Africa, which can make it more dangerous.
