Vehicles and driving in Secunda

Secunda was built to serve Sasol's huge synthetic fuels complex and the surrounding coal mines, and its economy still revolves around them. Shift workers commute daily in cars and bakkies, while contractors run large fleets of trucks, buses and earthmoving equipment that need regular electrical maintenance and fleet tracking. Heavy vehicles travel the N17 between Secunda and Gauteng, so charging and lighting faults are frequent. The town sits high on the Highveld, where cold, frosty winter mornings regularly expose weak batteries. Summer thunderstorms add their own challenges, and nearby farms growing maize keep tractors and farm bakkies in steady service.
