South Africa's a fairly stable country politically (at least, compared to the surrounding countries...) so I wouldn't think you'd have trouble with that particular facet of your visit.
My dad just got back from a trip to SA about 3 months ago, and he did mucho research...including some goverment websites that tell you any current problems in the geo-political region, and what to expect while your there, and how best to go about things in your travels. Of course the one interesting story was that he went to a restaurant with some friends, before dark, near the 'compound/hotel' were they were staying, and came out after dark, and there was a security guard with a shotgun in the parking lot...make your own assumptions on stability and security from that...
