Travel Safely: How to Avoid Toll-gate Hijackings During the Holidays

Tollgate hijackings have become a trend in South Africa, and as we approach the Easter holidays, many people will be travelling out of town. This brief but necessary stop can turn what was supposed to be a pleasant trip into a nightmare.

Here are some of the measures you can take to reduce the risk of becoming the target:

1. Only use well-lit toll gates
2. Travel during off-peak hours
3. Pay attention to your surrounding
4. Keep your valuables out of sight?

While these precautions may enhance your safety, they don't completely eliminate the risk. In the unlikely event that your vehicle is hijacked at a toll gate, you’ll need a quick response from a reputable vehicle tracking company.
