Passenger crackdown

http://www.ntv.co.ke
49 people were this morning arrested and charged at the Nairobi traffic court for boarding matatus  from non designated areas. Passengers most of them going to work had their plans cut short after they were found to have flouted  traffic rules . Nairobi area traffic commandant Patrick Lumumba says the operation is still going on  and has warned passengers against flagging down matatus  from anywhere.

1.11-1.113 kwani kbs siku hizi wako na mat services?

Good job for passing the buck to the public. All are in the wrong, just as a prostitute and a curb crawler.

Oh my, do they have to make the poor ladies scramble up the truck like soldiers? I'd have liked to see how they get off the truck.....

It's about time, Kenyans are quick to blame everybody else but themselves.

Good start but they need to blame the driver more for braking his matatu. But all those drivers who create an extra lane during traffic jams on the grass, tress and sidewalks should be arrested and charged. Especially Langata Road, Mbagathi way, Mombasa Road, etc

yes to law and order

Good observation - This is matatu DRIVER'S and crew's problem and should never be a passenger problem. The police will try and extort bribes from these poor people. This issue needs to be addressed ASAP.

Consumer Organizations should come out and petition GoK and local authorities to build and maintain decent Bus Shelters! Like wild animals the cops go for the least resistance part of the society! Ever watched the Kruger Lion Hunt? Classic cop behaviour!
