You may have come across the blue marked signs whilst
cruising down the highway and gave no second thought to them.

These blue marked signs can come in very handy in times of emergencies, whether you’re in the middle of nowhere or stuck in midday traffic on the national highways.
Blue marker boards are located every 200m, they indicate
your exact location. Simply put, they provide a short description of your exact
location. This makes it easier for emergency services to locate you.
The
description is made up of the route
you’re travelling on, the section of
the route you’re on, kilometres and distance you’ve travelled as well as
the direction you’re heading. A
quick quote of these details can save a life or shorten the distance an
ambulance may have to travel to reach you.
Equip yourself with the right information for your trip and
for other road users as well.
If you find yourself in an accident or witness one, dialling
emergency services is free from your Vodacom cellphone. Should you be unsure,
please contact your service provider.
