    You're going to cherish this video when you miss home. This video brought me so much joy, I just drove this exact route in April after my Step fathers funeral coming from the south coast and stopping over for the night. I miss home. Not to mention the drivers and pedestrians doing what they're supposed to do, the green lushness. People using indicators and safe spaces when at the robot. This is my favorite video 😂 my fave road is coming down from gateway all the way down to the Pearls, with that ocean view, the ships I feel joy and a skip in my heart every time.

      I know…coming down towards the Pearls is one of the best views 😍

    I used to drive that road many times coming from Pmburg.Its so lovely to see it has not changed. I am a DURBAN BOY or BEACH BOY. I am very surprised that the ANC government did not change KINGMEADS name. Cloudy weather so Durban, the difference between Thailand is the vichels on the road. It is mad house of motor bikes. Crossing the bridge on the Umgeni river at the Blue Lagoon made my heart jump. I used to go and do fishing there. As you proceed towards Beechwood it is still the same, wow! Another great spot for fishing is Virginia beach behind the airport. On the left hand side many years ago there were no houses, just bush. Thanks guy for the trip down memory lane, gee that was beautiful seeing all my known places again.

    I literally almost had an accident on this road back in 2006 on my way to oyster keys in umshlanga. I picked up two friends at the airport, I think it was the old Durban international back then and on route back the roads were very wet from a thunderstorm and I took a slip way, lead into umslanga can't remember as I was on holiday there, and my car skidded when I tried to stop by the stop street. I think I was driving too fast.......
