Vehicles and driving in Pinetown

Pinetown sits inland from Durban on the N3, at the top of the long climb up Fields Hill and Cowies Hill. Its large industrial areas in New Germany and Westmead host manufacturers, warehouses and logistics firms that operate delivery trucks and vans every day. Heavy traffic heading towards Durban and up to Pietermaritzburg means plenty of stop-start driving, which tests batteries and charging systems. The area is humid and often misty, so moisture-related faults in lights and connectors crop up regularly. Busy taxi routes connect Pinetown to Clermont, KwaDabeka and Durban, and fleet owners frequently request tracking units and camera systems.
