Getting Around Swaziland

There are 3,810km of highways in Swaziland. The main roads are all tarred, and all other major roads are well-maintained gravel roads. Vehicles drive on the left.

The speed limit in urban areas is 60 km/h and on the open road is 80 km/h. Car hire is available and most petrol stations are open 24 hours.

Unfortunately the country has a high road accident rate so be very aware of erratic drivers and animals on the road.

Drunk driving could contribute to this as the legal blood-alcohol level is three times that of the normal rate of 0.5%
