Use formal campsites, caravan parks, SANParks rest camps, private reserves or guarded parking rather than informal roadside overnight stops.
Official checks
National meteorological warnings for wind, snow, heat, storms and flood watches. Road agency traffic map for closures, chain controls, incidents and roadworks.
