Kloof M13 Camera often hidden on pedestrian bridge over M13 in Kloof before descent down Fields Hill - Durban bound side. 80km zone.

Durban - Victoria Embankment M13 If you are travelling west, there is a so-and-so on the centre island very close to the Maydon Road intersection traffic lights. It sits facing east - and is probably multitasking, shooting both westbound and eastbound vehicles. It would be interesting to know when it began this beat. And whether it will keep it up till there is no more speeding on this road. Else it is there only for the money.

Nottingham Road N3 South Travelling on the N3 South(Towards DBN) at the Nottingham Road offramp there is a 'Green mamba' aka permanent camera.

Marianhill N3 North and South Travelling on the N3 North and South just before and after the Marianhill toll plaza there is a 'Green mamba' aka permanent camera.

Pietermaritzburg N3 North and South Travelling on the N3 north(from DBN to Jhb) & South(to DBN) around the Church Str off ramp there is a 'Green mamba' aka Permanent camera.

Van Reenen / Tugela N3 South ON the N3 South(towards DBN) right before the Padstal(Sand River Valley turn off) Permanent camera.

Van Reenen N3 South ON the N3 South(towards DBN) right before the Van Reenen Police station on your left their is a Permanent camera. Just after the Estcourt 99km sign.

Van ReenenN3 North and South ON the N3 North & South after the Bergview Engen there is an overhead bridge. At the bridge there is a Permanent camera.

Howick N3 South Travelling on the N3 south towards DBN a new trick is average speed trapping. For 25km the speed limit is 100km/h. Camera reads your number plate at the beginning of the zone and at the end of the zone and if your average speed was more than 100km/h you get a nice love letter in the post. The 1st camera is about 100m before the Nottingham Road Offramp and the 2nd Camera is at Balgowan, it is located after the overhead bridge.

Durban Umgeni Rd. On Umgeni Rd towards Makro after the Conaught interchange - Metro usually trap from the opposite side of the concrete structure on the LHS (where the guys wait for "jobs"). Cameras are set to catch you from the back.Speed limit is 60km.

Pinetown M7 On the M7 near Hillcrest and Kloof ramps, watch for unmanned cameras on the overhead pedestrian bridges. Speed limit generally 80km in these areas.

Queensburgh M7 After the Bellville on-ramp onto the M7 towards the N2, manned camera on the overhead bridge hitting from the back. Speed limit - 100km dropping to 80km then to 60km.

Pinetown Richmond Rd. Near the Ninian & Lester factory (Jockey), opposite the Walker Tools factory, unmanned camera on both sides. The van is usually in the empty lots on the side. Speed limit - 60km.

Stanger N2 Approximately 500m before the Shell Ultra City, the metro hide on the LHS bushes. Speed limit 100km dropping to 80Km.
