What breaks down and moves in Free State
The Free State sits on the main road between Gauteng and the coast, so much of its towing comes from through traffic. The N1 passes Kroonstad, Winburg and Bloemfontein on the way to Cape Town, and the N3 runs past Villiers and Harrismith towards Van Reenen's Pass and Durban. Long weekend and holiday traffic brings breakdowns, caravan trouble and crashes. The N8 links Bloemfontein with Kimberley and Lesotho, and the N5 crosses the eastern Free State to Bethlehem. Farming dominates, so bakkies, tractors and grain trucks are common. Winter fog and frost on the Highveld, and summer storms and hail, make driving harder. Clarens and the Golden Gate area draw weekend visitors with trailers and motorbikes.
Typical tow bars requests in the area come from:
- Truckers, buses and logistics: tow bars on support bakkies that move spares trailers between depots
- Motorists and families: a detachable bar on the family car for a weekend trailer or bike rack
- Farmers and 4x4 owners: heavy-duty bakkie bars for livestock, feed and water tank trailers on farm roads
