Vehicles and driving in Rustenburg

Rustenburg lies at the foot of the Magaliesberg on the Platinum Highway, the N4, in the heart of the world's richest platinum mining belt. Mines and contractors run huge fleets of bakkies, buses and heavy machinery fitted with beacons, reverse alarms, work lights and tracking units. Mine buses and taxis carry workers between the shafts and surrounding settlements every day. The bushveld climate brings hot summers that shorten battery life and dusty roads that clog electrical components. The nearby Pilanesberg and Sun City bring tourists in 4x4s and caravans, while citrus and vegetable farms in the area also need dependable vehicles.
