Think now of having a public transport system where passengers pay electronically (a la M-PESA) and you select your destination on some touch-screen map and you sit and enjoy the ride. Timely schedules (maybe by using some route heuristics like from Google Earth to escape jammed routes), with 24-hour operation.
In the not so far off future...matatu drivers beware!
Futuristic, but NEVER in KENYA, unless for vision 3020 - yes 3-0-2-0!!
