Illegal overtaking: reports from South African roads
Illegal overtaking (barrier line or blind rise)
Illegal overtaking is passing over a barrier line, on a blind rise or bend, or when oncoming traffic is too close. Head-on crashes like these are among the deadliest on our two-lane roads. Report it with the plate, the road and the nearest town or kilometre marker.
