A wonderful journey awaits, discovering breathtaking landscapes, mouthwatering food, time-honored heritage and culture, through a self-drive tour in South Africa. However, there are some things you should know when driving in foreign countries. Here are some thoughtful tips to help you enjoy great self-drive experiences.
行前準備
Preparation
在南非自駕游開始之前,自然要先準備好駕照和車輛。持中國駕照的朋友記得先在公證處作英文公正,然后拿到南非大使館做認證,并且在旅行途中一定要帶好這些文件以防萬一喔。除了駕照等相關(guān)文件,周密的行程計劃也是一次完美自駕游不可或缺的要素,安排妥帖的行程可以避免長時間在夜間行車,可以為安全性加分不少。
Of course, a valid driver’s license and a proper vehicle are must-haves before embarking on your self-drive tour. Chinese drivers should apply for an English certificate of license validation issued by a notary office and submit it to the Embassy of South Africa in China for approval. As a reminder, you should bring your license and the English certificate with you at all times, during your trip. Also, you should avoid driving overnight and stick to your carefully planned itinerary to ensure a safe trip.
在南非,大多數(shù)國際和當?shù)刂?a href='/qiche/' target=_blank>汽車租賃公司在主要機場和大多數(shù)市中心都能找到,如果你礙于語言障礙難以開口,則不妨試試“滴滴租車”,選擇自駕租車-海外租,就能輕松租車啦。另外,在滴滴APP中還可以免費在線翻譯駕照,是不是省事不少呢~
Although many globally- and locally-renowned car rental companies can be found at main airports and downtowns of major cities in South Africa, it will be much easier and worry-free for you to use the DiDi Car Rental app, with just one click on the ‘Rent a Car Overseas’ option to get started. The DiDi app also provides online services for translating your driving license, making it easier to start planning your self-drive tour.
自駕啟程
Rules to Follow
“左側(cè)行駛,右側(cè)超車”是南非的基本交規(guī),南非的汽車是右舵駕駛、左手換檔的車輛,這點和國內(nèi)相反,所以要特別注意。在南非,開車時使用手機或移動設(shè)備是違法的,不過可以使用車載免提系統(tǒng),所以無須擔心。在空曠的道路上,南非的時速限制為120kmph,小路為100kmph,城鎮(zhèn)為60到80kmph,具體還請多多注意路標,總結(jié)一句話就是“安全第一,謹慎為上”。
Remember to drive on the left side of the road and steer clear of other cars on the right side in South Africa. All of the steering wheels of vehicles in South Africa are located in the right front seat, which is completely opposite to China. Don’t use mobile phones or other mobile devices when driving, but in-vehicle hands-free systems are allowed. The speed limit is 120kmph on open roads, 100kmph on small roads, and 60-80kmph in city/town roads, subject to speed limit signs and local regulations. No matter what the speed limit is, just be careful and stay safe!
南非的汽車燃油消耗按升計算,路上要經(jīng)常查看油表數(shù),以免燃油耗盡在路上拋錨。南非各種型號的汽油都有,包括無鉛汽油和鉛置換汽油97,95號或93號(通常被稱為“高級”或“超級” 汽油),95號和93號汽油可在高海拔地區(qū)使用,95號和97號汽油則更適合海岸地區(qū),從汽車租賃公司租到的大部分汽車一般使用無鉛汽油。加油站大多是24小時開放,有服務(wù)生給車加油,支付油費可以用現(xiàn)金或是信用卡、借記卡。
Petrol consumption is calculated by liters in South Africa, so you should check the petrol gauge frequently on the road to avoid running out of gas. There are a variety of petrol supplies, including unleaded petrol, 97#, 95# and 93#, among which, 95# and 93# are usually used for driving in high-altitude areas; 95# and 97# are suitable for driving along coastal areas. Cars from rental companies mostly use un-leaded petrol. Many gasoline stations are open for 24 hours with service staff, while cash and all major credit/debit cards are accepted for payment.
南非各大中心城市之間的許多國家公路都是收費公路,輕型客車的收費標準在10蘭特到200蘭特之間不等。在豪登省,可以注冊一個e-toll賬戶,通過e-toll計費,省去了許多繳費、找錢的麻煩。
There is toll charge for driving on many national highways between major cities in South Africa, priced from 10-200 Rands. You can register for an e-toll account in Gauteng Province, a much faster and convenient way to travel.
特別提示
Special notes
南非對酒后駕車有著嚴格的規(guī)定,血液中的酒精含量最大不能超過0.05%,開車不喝酒、喝酒不開車,為了你的安全,一定要嚴格遵守喔。
Do not drive after drinking alcohol! Blood alcohol content cannot exceed 0.05%. Again, no alcohol when driving. Safety always comes first!
途經(jīng)農(nóng)村地區(qū)時,因為道路沒有圍欄,所以一定要多多注意突然出現(xiàn)在路上的動物,比如狗、雞、羊、馬,在一些地方甚至?xí)泻玉R、牛等,尤其在晚間,可能會更加危險。如果你看到路標顯示一只跳躍的羚羊,更要減速慢行,可能會碰到大羚羊過馬路的情況。行車路上碰到野生動物,一定不要停車喂食,不僅危險更會被重罰喔。
When passing through rural areas, pay attention to animals that may suddenly appear on the roads without safety barriers, such as dogs, chickens, sheep, horses, and in some places Hippopotamus or cows, especially at night. Slow down when you see a sign with a jumping antelope, which means you may come across an antelope passing the road. Also, do not stop the car to feed the wild animals if you encounter any, as it is very dangerous and you will be fined a serious amount of money for doing so.
自駕游最重要的是開心,事前多了解、多計劃、多準備,才能在面對突發(fā)狀況時游刃有余,輕松享受美好的南非自駕之旅。南非旅游局先祝所有準備來自駕的朋友們一路順風,玩得開心!
Keeping these tips in mind will be very helpful for your self-drive tour. Hope all Chinese self-drive lovers to South Africa will enjoy a safe, wonderful, and fun trip!
