Winter Road Tripping

Road tripping through South Africa during winter can be amazing. While the rain doesn’t always make for favourable conditions, the scenery is breathtaking as mountainsides are filled with waterfalls and grass plains are deep green and filled with life. However, while it may make for optimal sightseeing, driving in winter can be a difficult task and it’s important to consider a few things before embarking in your South Africa car rental with unlimited mileage.

It’s important to remember the rules of the road in unfavourable weather – something that should be done all year round. Pay special attention to speed limits and following distance. Often it may be difficult to see on a typical winter day and it’s important to drive with your headlights on and be on the constant look out for brake lights ahead of you. Ensure that you’re break lights are working before hitting the road – just one of the many checks you should carry out before leaving.

Ensure you can see optimally at all times. Replace your windscreen wipers before you leave if need be and top up the wiper fluid to make sure your vision really is crystal clear. Concentrate on the road ahead of you at all times and if you find yourself getting tired or your vision blurry then ask someone else to drive for a while.

It’s important to keep stimulated during a road trip, especially during winter. However, often the line between stimulated and distracted can be blurred when making use of long term car hire in Cape Town and surrounds. Ensure that there is a constant flow of music or a radio channel that you like – it’s especially useful to tune into a channel that provides up to date traffic reports.

Traffic during winter is particularly hectic and this is when having music in the background is useful. Avoid the traffic all together and pull over in a safe and preferably dry spot to enjoy the contents of that flask or to study the map for the duration of the journey. If you do plan to stop off on the side of the road then don’t stop on a shoulder, especially in bad weather. Ensure that your car is completely off the road and remember that a yellow line should only be used for emergencies.

When it’s cold we expend more energy and so do our cars which is why you need to keep supplies for both people and the car itself in the event of an emergency or just to hold both over on a long trip. At least if you make use of reputable car hire in South Africa you can rest assured that your car will be in good condition from the moment you embark on your winter road trip.

Life Insurance


Most hospital plans in South Africa help cover the bills for a non-elective visit to your local ward, however it’s wise to look for something more versatile that can supplement your existing medical aid or hospital plan. Search for a Hospital Cash Back Cover that doesn’t cover your stay in hospital, but rather offers you a payout (after a hospital stay of three consecutive nights or more) to spend as you wish, much like your family would when receiving your life cover payout. This makes it more versatile than other types of hospital cover, and allows you to decide how you want to spend the money.
You’ll have a lot of freedom to choose considering how reasonable your payout will be. For example, you can get up to R5, 000 for every day that you’re in hospital (for a stay of up to 90 days).
The benefits of hospital cover
  • When you’re in hospital – If you go to hospital, you’ll get a payout of up to R5 000 per day depending on your level of cover. In some cases it takes a 3-night hospital stay for you to qualify but then you will receive a payout for every day from day 1 to day 90.
  • In high care – Your daily payout will go up to 150% of what you would receive were you admitted to standard care. This means a payout of up to R7, 500 per day. Chances are you’ll need all the entertainment you can get while you’re recovering and with this payout, you can afford it.
  • In ICU – You’ll need a lot more money to make you feel better or add some extravagance to your recovery if you end up in ICU. Whatever you want to use it for, your payout could be doubled by 200%.

If you’re going to lose your limbs, why not buy yourself the sexiest legs on the planet? Hospital Cash Back Cover can help you do this with cover that empowers you to make choices about your own life. While you at it, why not invest in life insurance and really ensure your family is financially protected if you pass away.
