Holiday season may be over, but road risks aren’t. 32 fellow South Africans lose their lives on the road each day!
That’s 32 too many...
Let’s change this in 2026. Swipe 👉 for 5 simple tips to protect yourself and your loved ones on the road:
1️⃣ Plan & Rest: Long drive back home or daily commute, plan your route and take breaks. Fatigue is a sneaky enemy – don’t drive tired (we’ve all seen those holiday bus crash headlines 😓)
2️⃣ Slow Down in Rain: Summer storms are here and heavy rainfall leads to more crashes. If it’s pouring, slow down, turn your headlights on, and increase your following distance. Wet roads can be slick, no need to rush. ⛈️
3️⃣ Buckle Up, Always: No negotiation – seatbelts for everyone, even in the backseat. It’s a small action that can save a life in a big way.
4️⃣ Share Your Trip: Heading out? Let someone trusted know. You can use Thiba Ingozi’s Link Trip feature to share your real-time route with family. If something goes off-route or you’re delayed, they’ll know early. That little step = big peace of mind.
5️⃣ SOS at Hand: In an emergency like an accident or a breakdown in a dodgy area, you shouldn’t wait long for help. The moment something feels wrong, hit that SOS on Thiba Ingozi. It alerts nearby users and emergency services in seconds, getting you help faster. 🚨
South Africa, let’s make our journeys safer. 🙏
