I agree bumps and rumbles from under the bridge at Total South C, past Total all the way to panari, another set at GM, another at Imara Daima and Cabanas. What is worse is the way those actros trucks are driven. When we were growing up, trucks were driven by wazee and a few coasta rica jamaas on veve. Both types of drivers were never in a hurry. We have since recruited 20 yr olds from the matatus to drive trucks. Unfortunately they don't understand a truck is not a ma three or a small vehicle which can come to an abrupt halt. They race those trucks like they are driving mathrees. Sorry but I can't wait to RVR to get it's act together and put some well deserved brakes on most of these actroses. Their owners don't appear bothered as to how their trucks are driven provided the running balance is always ticking upwards (typical kenyan selfishness)!

Pole sana Mbili for the loss.

I think the problem is us drivers, the mentality that one must speed on mombasa road is ridiculous. Speed bumps should be erected as a matter of urgency.

On jogoo road, the area around Uchumi should not be left behind.

BUMPS BUMPS BUMPS.. Simple and cheap solutions that have worked on the superhighway, before the more expensive solutions are found by this lethargic government.

TAKE CARE


Holy Moly! 2.06-2.10 and the one where I think some kid was crushed is scary.

Did you notice that all the accidents happened on proper roads with lights and signs yet none happened in the one captured in India?

You only hold your breath while watching their disorganised way of driving but those tuk tuk and boda bodas of India know how to drive.

Multiple freak accident along Msa Rd at Total just after the flyover. The mat is a mangled wreck. A lorry is involved and I can only imagine its all about speed. Slow down people...

stress crossing mba road.
One time a colleague dropped me and si u know the way kenyans move in herds when crossing the road?I joined one group and when traffic slowed down the herd ran across.I happened to be in front.
All of a sudden a vehicle came cruising at maddening speed bringing the herd to an abrupt stop.
But cz I was infront one kiguy pushed me towards the speeding car!!.
I saw Angel Gabriel!!
It took 2 other men to pull me behind very fast.I missed being crushed by inches.
And the dude that pushed me said 'Madam chunga hapa watu hukufa sana'. ish.
I swore never to cross mba road.smile

WORD!!
The most notorious place na hizi maherds ni bellevue, GM na cabanas. Once a herd crossed right infront of me and I put hazard and slowed down, the idiot behind me was all over flashing lights at me and hooting yet I was using the middle lane...very sad I tell you how guys behave on the road, both pedestrians and drivers...

I'm truly sorry for your loss MBILI


You have forgotten Shell petrol station just after Nyayo round about and mark you there is a fly over hapo.

Very unfortunate. I live along that road and I don't know how many times I've had to wave at drivers to slow down. At Uchumi guys are going at 100 at Highway/Bellevue guys are going at 120. They all know people are crossing but all these silly drivers do is turn on the bright lights.

It's so sad. Even having this accident happening when someone just posted about the state of this road is bad enough.

Really really, Kenyan drivers. Slow down.

Another seven people die in a road accident in Mombasa. That is 14 in two days and 40 in 3 months. Maybe they should stop this mambo ya Pwani si Kenya. Pengine wamelaniwa...but this is a crazy statistic.

My statement is justified most of the casulties have been at Kibarani actually 2 accidents in succession....this story covers the entire stretch of M road hadi mwisho wake @newfarer if your driving pole pole no need to rush you will be ok...

I use this road every morning and evening. No speeding and you'll be fine.
