KZN Transport Department urges motorists to drive carefully
The Department of Transport in KwaZulu-Natal is calling for road users to exercise caution, after the long weekend got off to a tragic start.
At least three people have died on the province’s roads since Friday morning and more than 40 people - including a six-week-old baby - have been injured in a series of car crashes.
This as thousands of people flocked to the coast, with Heritage Day being a public holiday tomorrow.

“We have already experienced some crashes throughout the province so we want to ask road users to help us save lives," he added.
