I have always wondered....

Who is the greater idiot: the driver who jumps a red light and drives on or the one who stops 5m past the lights and waits for people behind to hoot when the light turns green?


Two idiots in equal measure.

Then I obediently obey the traffic lights and await for the green light. Another idiot hoots at me coz av refused to jump the lights and he wants to do exactly that. He should embed wings on his jalopy and fly over Nairobi. ABK

ha haa Kenyans

I think at the on start things were chaotic, courtesy of Matatu drivers.. later on, in some areas (my route)things got better.. infact traffic moved swiftly without those cops.. then i noticed the traffic lights all of a sudden were dim, spoilt!!!!.. how now? if its not the cops and rogue Kanjo officers so as to get the cops back on the routes...??


Im with you on this....WASIRUDI KUCONTOL TRAFFIC!!!!problem is we motorists were so (programmed) to being policed....But I bet in no time we shall deprogramme and relearn the traffic rules a new.

Mean while Kisia & Co wainvest in Traffic cameras then waweke Public notices for those who escape the Traffic cop or is it Kanjo?.....ama wanjojee ofenders when they are renewing PSV road licence for PSV & Commercial Vehicles na DL for small cars.
......law 'n order will be restored pap!!!

btw,... why is it that the trailers on the outer lane are allowed to jump lights(Nyayo roundabout)? woe unto you ukijaribu kumfuata....

The police is not the problem. The problem is the Kenyan who can afford to buy a car but cannot afford to think. Take a walk along city Hall way around midday and you will find two Council askaris whose job description seems to be to stop motorists at the pedestrian crossing so that pedestrians can cross. And when you stop at a red light especially when joining Uhuru Highway from Haile Selassie, the hooting behind is so loud that you wonder why we complain about people like Songo. Songo is a fair reflection of Kenyans.

And where in the world is this Kisia fellow? He should have been crucified in the media by now! He should be telling us why he cannot install simple traffic lights yet @Mukiha is willing to help!Let him never try to ask me for a governor's vote! The fellow has been unable to do street lighting,traffic lights, city cleanliness... kwani what does he do the whole day? ABK!
