Hi nerds (ain't that what we are?), Someone just sent me the message below. I am no civics expert, but isn't there a way the public can challenge the legitimacy or passing of such unrealistic laws as these? It sounds like we are living back in the days of kings like Hammurabi. Me. Kindly note that the following *Nairobi City Council by- laws* took effect from *1st July 2010:* 1. Pedestrians crossing the roads in Nairobi when traffic light is red – fine is Kshs. 10,000/= 2. Motorist moving on when the traffic light is red – fine Kshs 10,000/= 3. Pedestrians crossing the road while talking on their mobile phones – fine is Kshs. 500/= 4. Boarding at non designated PSV/matatu, bus stop - Fine 10,000/= 5. Unfastened seat belt - Fine 500/= 6. Use of mobile phone when driving Kshs10,000/= 7. Driving with worn out tyres - Fine Kshs 10,000/= 8. Double parking -Fine Kshs 20,000/=
Yeah, Is there anyone here who knows how civilians can stand against silly things such as these and the salo hikes of MP's? watchman On 7/6/10 11:52 AM, Simon Mbuthia wrote:

if you had an unfastened seat belt and you were driving a car with worn out tires and you spoke on the phone at the same time, and then you decided to double-park and cross the road while talking on the phone and didnt notice that the light was red thats 20,000 + 10,000 + 10,000 + 500 + 10,000 = ksh 50, 500

Are the above 3 not traffic offenses and Is City Hall now duplicating the police role? So one would one have to pay traffic police and council too? That's a lot of money being stolen from the public in open daylight under the pretext of laws. What is going on in KE?

oh gracious! when are the pedestrians meant to cross the road???? when the lights are what color??...I always thought when they are red!!
@Judy, Only at the Zebra crossings. Nowhere else! :) I am glad I can never drive without a seatbelt but I am wondering if these bylaws are published somewhere. I'd like to challenge them in court, as these have nothing to do with NCC, but the Traffic Act, cap 403, Laws of Kenya. We cannot have two sets of laws, two different enforcement agencies, two different penalty mechanisms (or is it frameworks?). -- Best regards, Odhiambo WASHINGTON, Nairobi,KE +254733744121/+254722743223 _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ "If you have nothing good to say about someone, just shut up!." -- Lucky Dube

We should all sue the Nairobi City Council for not providing enough zebra crossings & lights crossing points, that way they can either provide the crossings or stop harassing pedestrians. On Thu, Jul 8, 2010 at 8:47 AM, wesley kirinya <kiriinya2000@yahoo.com>wrote:

Steve, Sorry for the sad incident, but it's a different scenario when dealing with armed thugs (carjackers). So much is at stake. Lives are in danger on both sides.

I'm probably taking this thread to far, but the scenario was ...the carjackers had already hijacked another car and taken off with its occupants, leaving my cousin stranded as they took his car keys with them. Administration police who responded to the alarm raised actually listened to him, checked that he was not armed, and had him sit on the ground next to his car. Then regular cops came along and shot him dead in cold blood. Believe you me, there are witnesses who confirm this, but of course none is willing to testify, not even to independent bodies. And those of us who tried to push it..well, we were threatened and had to drop it. BR, S -- This message represents the official view of the voices in my head.

Aparently, the CCN has two websites one ending with a .org and another ending with a .com (I think). One of these still has Wathika as the Mayor and Gakuo as the Town Clerk! There is also another interesting site by the current Town Clerk, Philip Kisia which goes something like: www.ideasfornairobi.org. I'm unsure whether the Hamurabi Code is available on these sites, though!

Aparently, the CCN has two websites one ending with a .org and another ending with a .com (I think). One of these still has Wathika as the Mayor and Gakuo as the Town Clerk!
There is also another interesting site by the current Town Clerk, Philip Kisia which goes something like: www.ideasfornairobi.org.

Ok, Here is another true story (3 weeks ago, this occured) It doesnt matter whether you adhered to these rules or not.... A work colleague of mine was in a matatu, policemen came and started harrasing the conductor... The passengers got pissed and decided to confront the bunch of policemen, The policemen seized the matatu and everyone inside, and took them to police station. Then it charged everyone with "Attempting to alight at a non-bus stop area" - charged with 10k fine each and thrown in a cell. She had to call on relative to pay the 10k (bail) since she dint want to miss a day of work, to appear in court. Guess what the court will do when they appear before the judge [?][?] :-)
You don't pay bail to avoid court. On Wed, Jul 7, 2010 at 4:41 PM, ndungu stephen <ndungustephen@gmail.com>wrote:

It doesnt matter whether you adhered to these rules or not....
A work colleague of mine was in a matatu, policemen came and started harrasing the conductor...
The passengers got pissed and decided to confront the bunch of policemen,
The policemen seized the matatu and everyone inside, and took them to police station.
Then it charged everyone with "Attempting to alight at a non-bus stop area"
- charged with 10k fine each and thrown in a cell.
She had to call on relative to pay the 10k (bail) since she dint want to miss a day of work, to appear in court.
Guess what the court will do when they appear before the judge [?][?] :-)

WHAT? Ati you say fiction? One day i was in a matatu. When we were near makongeni police station the cops arrested the mat and 4 of them manned the door. We were taken to the station and told to alight. All who alighted were arrested for not wearing a seatbelt. Those who knew actually shouted "HOW CAN I ALIGHT WHEN THE SEATBELT IS HOLDING ME?" The mat was released and we had to got o court. We payed 1k fine for seatbelt. Mind you that was about 1 year ago On Wed, Jul 7, 2010 at 5:17 PM, ndungu stephen <ndungustephen@gmail.com>wrote:

In my opinion the rules listed here make perfect sense the only problem is that the people charged with enforcing the rules use it for their own benefit. If you look @ the way pedestrians and motorists behave here in Ke those fines are clearly justified. On 06/07/2010, Simon Mbuthia <simon.mbuthia@gmail.com> wrote:
Hi nerds (ai me in't that what we are?),

I am sure you've not seen a city council van or a police car with worn out tires, jumping traffic lights, breaking a variety of traffic and associated laws etc. the laws themselves are fundamentally broken. why do you think the fines are so high ? council / police are paid poorly -- they are provided guns and authority to collect the rest of their salary from the street.
