How can one beat these speed guns. On another note, I was once told that I was doing 115 when I was aware they were on the road and had been doing no more than 90km/hr. I believe they sometimes want to intimidate road users into giving away bribes.... get a speed gun detector, i acquired one recently and its working perfectly. Really?Where? price? I've got one too that shipped with my car. It usually detects the guns (with occasional false positives). But it is not 100% effective. You are basically counting on detecting them before they detect you - which is not an exact science. I've been arrested once on the Nairobi - Nakuru highway in spite of the device. As a matter of fact it never detects anything on that route, yet it detects several here in the city, including on Waiyaki way. A jammer is a much better defense, but it is more expensive and illegal in many countries anyway. I suspect Kenyan cops would generally be non the wiser though. All this trouble just to drive above legal speed limits?:  Waafrika wenzangu!!!

Try keeping to 50kph as you exit forest road onto thika road at pangani, and most likely they are hiding at the bridge , its impossible. "You can't have everything. Where would you put it?" - Stephen Wright

Why would you drive to mombasa with a lorry,trailer or pick up? I think 100KM on our highways is reasonable speed If Obiero did it, Who Am I?

All this trouble just to drive above legal speed limits?: Waafrika wenzangu!!! Well, I don't think you should just blindly follow the law. The 50 kph limit on Waiyaki way for instance is absolute nonsense. Why does it start at Uthiru and not at Kangemi? Or Mountainview? Or Kinoo? Or Muthiga? Surely all these areas are equally busy in terms of vehicular and pedestrian (crossing) traffic. Do people North of Uthiru not deserve "protection from speeding drivers"? That being said, I am not particularly ashamed to admit that I sometimes drive well in excess of generally reasonable speed limits if I consider it safe to do so. If you want to argue with that, consider that in some countries, they have variable speed limits on certain roads. What does that tell you about religiously respecting speed limits under all circumstances? Sasa tupeni mawe.  Learn first to treat your time as you would your money, then treat your money as you do your time.

It is complete nonsense to ask motorists to drive at 50kph just after Museum/forest road...

It is complete nonsense to ask motorists to drive at 50kph just after Museum/forest road... Its also complete nonsense to drive at 120 kms when your car's stopping distance is 200Metres Quote:Remember a 5km/h difference in your speed could be the difference between life and death for a vulnerable road user like a pedestrian.
Hit by a car at 60km/h, 9 out of 10 pedestrians will be killed.
Hit by a car at 50km/h, 5 out of 10 of pedestrians will be killed.
Hit by a car at 30km/h, 1 out of 10 pedestrians will be killed. If Obiero did it, Who Am I?
