A pilot accompanied by a passenger on-board a Jabiru SP with registration ZU-CIA took off on a private flight from Rhino Park Aerodrome with the intention to land at Witbank Aerodrome. While flying at a height of 6 500 feet, the engine suddenly splattered and then stopped. The pilot attempted to restart it, but this was in vain. The pilot elected to execute a forced landing on the R104 roadway. During the landing roll, the outer section of the left wing collided with a road sign pole, which caused the aircraft to veer off the roadway before coming to rest in a right-wing low attitude.
