A truck loaded with paint crashed into another vehicle on the N3 near Howick on Monday morning, causing major traffic delays and leaving paint buckets scattered across the highway.
Only one lane was open on the Johannesburg-bound side near Tweedie as workers cleared spilled paint that made the road surface dangerously slippery.
Meanwhile, the SA Weather Service has warned of more trouble ahead with severe storms expected.
A Level 2 Yellow warning has been issued for KZN for Monday and Tuesday, with forecasts of severe thunderstorms, damaging winds, heavy lightning, possible hail and heavy rain.
The storms are expected to hit mainly southern areas.
