Vehicles and driving in Western Cape

The Western Cape has a winter-rainfall climate, so the wet, cold months from May to August are when damp connectors, failing wipers and flat batteries tend to show up. Along the coast, salty air and the strong south-easter speed up corrosion on terminals, earth straps and exterior lights. The N1, N2 and N7 carry produce trucks from wine farms, fruit orchards and packhouses, and the Garden Route and West Coast draw caravans and 4x4 tourers every holiday season. Cape Town's commuters depend heavily on minibus taxis and private cars, keeping auto electricians busy with charging faults, central locking and security installs.
