Yesterday was a dark day for many around the country, holidays coming to an end and the drive home from various destinations under way. What’s even worse is being forced to sit in traffic on the N2, a veld fire closing the road between Spine and Baden Powell roads in Cape Town yesterday afternoon.

Yeah, everyone loves bumper to bumper traffic on their way home to hear Derek Watts and the Carte Blanche team confirm the holidays are over. Here’s Western Cape traffic spokesperson Kenny Africa on News24:

”Visibility is very poor and there are huge flames because of strong winds,” he said.

Let’s take a moment and spare a thought for those who had to deal with this yesterday:

Luckily no one was injured in the blaze and everyone made it to work safely this morning. Which is why you’re here, desperately waiting for day one to come to an end.
