Cape motorists fear using the ‘Hell Run N2


Motorists traveling on the N2 are left fearing for their lives as many criminal activities have been happening on the N2 route. Motorists using this route have started calling it the ‘Hell Route’.

There have been reports about these criminal activities on the N2 and for the longest time the N2 route has caused fear and sorrow for those using it. Over the past few months, criminal activities and protests have escalated at an alarming rate, especially around the Helderberg area. Every second or third day you hear of the stoning of vehicles on the N2. The route is one of the busiest routes going in the CBD and for it to be unsafe doesn’t make any sense. The Helderberg crime watch group said “its nerve wrecking to have to wait and hear if your child made it to school or one your family members made it safe to work”. 

The stoning of two vehicle last Thursday caused panic and fear and this made SAPS and the government to come with a plan of action on how to protect motorist who are traveling on the N2 route especial at night.
