At a roundabout, I see matatus on the wrong lane and the cops just look on!! There are some few cops who actually tell them to go the way the lane dictates but most especially on Uhuru Highway , Do not care! and so the impunity continues.
I remember one Mr Sang' nyoroshad those fellows of Jogoo road ( including Mats) who loved to overlapp in about two weeks. He was there consistently and if he caught you overlapping, he would take you car keys and ask you to count 100 cars ( in traffic) by the time he came back, you had lost about an hour. He would give you back your keys and off you go. The next day, one would not be caught dead overlapping.
Those were serious cops. It was romoured that he culd not read well so even if your Road licence or insurance was expired, you would just stop right infront of him. He would look at it and ask you to drive on. But he would not let you use the wrong lane. Never.
Stop peddling rumours to make the story sweet. In as much as the police force was and is corrupt, i doubt they would promote an illiterate cop to the rank of an inspector
, however i liked it that he asked drivers to count 100 BMW's or Merc in eastlands. how long will did it take.
