I was travelling on this road just recently and was remarking with my companions how dangerous it is for these trucks to be driven on free gear. Then this happens. These drivers need to be reigned in. Where is NTSA?

This is extremely sad.May all those who have lost loved ones have strength to bear the loss.

Someone commented about the bumps on that section and I support his sentiments.

How about trucks with such cargo moving only at night?

Love is beautiful and so are those who share it.With Love, Marriage is an amazing event in ones life time, the foundation of joy, happiness and success.

NTSA are too busy collecting revenue. It was an absurd idea for bumps to be setup on that stretch of road nevermind the lack of signage.

SAD!!!!....The Karai stretch and it's silly bumps has been discussed here before. Listening to a driver who was right behind the truck before it veered off, it seems the truck hit an unmarked bump! There are many in this country and ole you if you are not familiar with them. On another note, what is the marking code for Kenyan road bumps and what are the stand sizes?. For the few i have seen, some as big as a whale, they are marked cross, across, along ,at an angle or painted black altogether!Sad
Nothing great was ever achieved without enthusiasm.

Very true. Bumps without any warnings are an accident waiting to happen especially at night. Witnessed an accident near Nanyuki due to unmarked bumps.. NTSA bure kabisa

May they rest in peace. We should not have bumps on highways where speed is over 80, if any let them be on exit and local roads where speed limit is less.
