Gauteng is still the province that experiences the highest volume of vehicle crime, with 61% of total vehicle crime incidents, followed by KwaZulu-Natal at 14%, and the Western Cape at 9%. The same trend applies when examining business vehicle crime specifically, with Gauteng at 56%, KwaZulu-Natal at 14% and the Western Cape at 13%.
Around 55% of all nationwide hijackings occur in Gauteng owing to higher vehicle volumes in this province. However, Gauteng is the province with one of the lowest proportions of hijacking, at 48%, in comparison to theft, at 52%.
In the Western Cape, a stand-out statistic is that business vehicle crime is overwhelmingly skewed toward hijacking, accounting for 82% of incidents. This means that it is almost five times likelier for a business-owned vehicle to be hijacked, rather than stolen in the Western Cape.
