In order to make sure you do not have a car accident, we at CMH Toyota Umhlanga have put together a few steps to follow in order to avoid an accident. Many car accidents that take place on the roads are very avoidable if the correct precautionary steps are taken. Here are some of the precautionary steps from us at CMH Toyota Umhlanga
1. Choose a vehicle with suitable safety features.
When you buy a car, check to see what safety features the vehicle comes with as well as check the safety ratings of the car before you make your decision.
2. While driving you must always keep your eyes on the road.
While you drive it is highly advised that you do not try multitasking and always keep your eyes on the road. If you are not fully focused on driving it increases the chance of an accident.
3. Always check your blind spots.
While driving, it is vital that you always check your blind spots. If you are changing lanes, turning, or reversing out of parking, you should always check your blind spots.
4. Do not use your phone while driving.
Using your phone while driving is possibly one of the worst habits people have. If you must answer the phone because it is an emergency, rather pull over and answer the call to avoid an accident.
5. Do not drive if you are tired.
Driving while you are tired can lead to fatal accidents. If you are tired, it can result in a decrease in mental awareness and alertness. Your reflexes will be a lot slower which will result in you having a slower reaction time in an emergency.
Make sure you come down and visit us at CMH Toyota Umhlanga, 1 Wilton Crescent, Umhlanga Ridge or contact us on 031 580 4000. We have friendly staff who are waiting to assist you.












Introducing the vehicle that started it all and did what nobody else thought of doing. With its introduction in 1994, the Toyota RAV4 has continually managed to seamlessly blend the best of city and outdoor lifestyle activity vehicles. It has become a symbol of fun and adventure.
The range consists of five models with manual, automatic, and CVT transmissions. Drivers can choose from three incredible models namely the dynamically assertive GX, the boldly adventurous GX-R and the range-topping high-spec VX grade.
The new generation Toyota RAV is truly incredible from every angle with a dynamic exterior design that boasts assertive and angular features with a bold bumper, grille, LED headlights and taillights creating a broad, athletic build that tapers towards the back to provide an all-round muscular appearance. The available alloy wheel sizes range between 17”, 18” and 19” and are optimised to provide a balance between on and off-road prowess.
LED daytime running lights and automatic high-beam headlights (with automatic levelling and follow-me-home functionality) create increased visibility on the road, while colour-coded door handles with a smart entry system and colour-coded and heated side mirrors with integrated indicators and cameras for a more stylish and functional design.
CMH Toyota Alberton is truly proud to be able to introduce the new generation Toyota RAV4
