Local authorities are considering the temporary closure of the road near VoÃ«lklip cliff until a guard rail has been erected.
Two elderly women died on Saturday evening when their vehicle plunged off a cliff in the Herolds Bay area.
The bodies of two 75-year-old women were recovered early on Sunday morning.
Two firearms were also found in the wreckage and have been sent for ballistics, according to the police.
The latest crash comes just a month after a 34-year-old mother and her two-year-old daughter died when their car also veered off a Voelklip cliff.

Revealed: Auckland's dirtiest beaches

Revealed: Auckland's dirtiest beaches

Swimming has been banned at 10 Auckland beaches this summer because of worsening pollution from human and animal wastes.
Permanent signs declaring that the water is not safe for swimming went up at the start of summer at Laingholm and Wood Bay near Titirangi, the north and south lagoons at Piha, and at the Bethells Beach lagoon - all popular swimming spots for children too young to swim in the wild west coast surf.
Auckland Council has now stopped routine monitoring of water quality at all five sites, as well as at five other beaches that already had permanent warning signs - Cox's Bay, Meola Reef, Weymouth, the Wairau Stream outlet at Milford Beach and Little Oneroa lagoon on Waiheke Island.
