Also travelling during this period, i happened to break a rule by standing in a bus (However, This is after ensuring the bus was not carrying luggage overhead and the few of us standing did not have much of an effect on the COG. I also made sure the bus was not a Nairobi - Githurai turned upcountry bus. ) 
<div><br></div><div>Business was quite brisk , as the bus bribed both traffic and regular police(This guys man permanent road blocks and now collect bribes from PSVs) On my way back, I obeyed all Traffic rules, but again other passengers were standing as the conductor insisted the bus can carry 10 standing passengers. We passed through several Traffic police blocks and the bus would stop some distance away and the conductor would alight to go &#39;greet&#39; the policemen. </div>
<div><br></div><div>From what is been gathered, it appears several of the accidents mostly involved buses, where a Nairobi bus was plying an upcountry route, and at least one incident where a Coast Modern bus had a driver new to the route. This can be attributed to reckless driving of matatus coupled with kenyan roads which normally have strange holes, bumps and other unmarked hazards which can be rudely surprising to new drivers. </div>
<div><br></div><div>I think we should have a crack police unit, similar to the ones in Need For Speed who can set up rolling road blocks. so far it seems that All traffic police have is a rubber batton for smashing windscreens and side mirrors, and is some situations,have to foot the costs as smashing windscreens is not a leag way of handling the matatus. </div>
