Dutch friends in Mozambique with an 11 tonne DAF had problems - mainly language problems trying to explain their case and ended up paying about $250 altogether. They were very good travellers who came down the west coast and were good at arguing etc. River crossings are the hardest as you can't just drive through and speed off!
Use google translate to learn words like 'tourist' and 'not commercial' and 'private vehicle' in each language such as Arabic, Portuguese etc
Quite a few trucks had "Private Vehicle' painted across the front of them....
