The government has to bring some sanity to the transport industry. How can drivers be allowed to drive for more than 10 hrs without resting in between? Drivers of public vehicles and good trucks should take 15 minutes rest every 2-3 hrs, this is recorded and can be verified by random checks. Vehicle inspection is a mess; allowing vehicles that are not roadworthy on the road. Over- speeding is another cause and off course our corrupt traffic officers. Na pombe nayo? Traveling on our highways at night is a no-go as you increase your chances of not getting to the destination. I personally don not drive on the major highways beyond 7pm. The government has to act

Once had a near-death experience on one of our highways a while back. Turned out that the driver had driven that bus from Msa to Migori that morning and on arrival at Migori, rested for only an hour or two and then was expected to drive the same bus, fully packed with passengers, back to Msa yet all the while he was complaining to the management that he was fatigued and the bus brakes were faulty. Suffice it to say, hatukufika Msa. And then the nightmares began...wacha tu.

VERY VERY SAD !!!

Aside from the issue of drivers, that portion of the road is VERY dangerous. The slope is very steep and there is a 45 degree right-turn down the stream. All guard rails have been knocked down and you can expect more accidents unless bumps are erected TODAY!!!

Unfortunately, we shall mourn for a few days, politicians will attend burials to make political statements, some hired n drunk goons will heckle, the following day media will get political news to report n we shall go back n wait for the next one to happen. One of the dark sides of our beautiful country.

I thought this is doable? however Mombasa to Homabay is crazy...
