Jogoo Road madness

The madness experienced at Jogoo rd overwhelms me. everyone knows that this is one of the most notorious roads in nairobi. How do you cope with this madness from matatu drivers fellow motorists? especially from Embassava and Forward hizi za kayole. These people watakuhootia the whole journey, when you decide to keep left wanakufinya. like today karibu nirushwe nje ya pavement. you could find yourself kwa mtaro. and be assured that hawa watu wakiharibu gari yako they wont pay. How do you cope with this madness??

Move out to the leafier burbs.

hahaha… I will move out soon mfuko ikikubali

I guess you are the kind of drivers who drive at 20kph on the right side.

I usually dont speed. I do an average of 60. Thats why i decided to stick to the left lane. Hiyo sasa pia ni visanga. These mofos almost finyad me. I had to move towards the pavement very fast

This madness I have observed… There should be some sort of weed this jogoo matatu guyz take that’s not available on the other sides of town

That left side is the matatus prefered side for picking and dropping passengers, so by deciding to drive at your own pace will result in bullying.
So its either you drive like them or avoid the route all together, thereby avoiding getting into confrontations

Try using the right lane on jogoo road and maintain the same speed as the other drivers to avoid being bullied. Alafu niulize, kwani ulimaliza course yako ya driving pale Top Gear juzi ndio maana unaendesha gari na speed ya 60km/h? :D:D:D

Are you a matatu crew by any chance? All that said, omba lane upewe no need of bullying slow drivers

Inaitwa -povertweed.
Nimeivuruta…very potend.

I remember a certain bus kwa hio barabara.Kulikuwa na jam.He was on the right side.He wanted to move on the left side.Juu ameachiwa kaspace kadogo ndio aingie .Akaanza kurudi reverse ndio angie vizuri…Kulikuwa na gari nyuma.Akarudi reverse akagonga hio gari ilikua nyuma hadi anaanza kuiskuma nyuma karibu ata apande bonnet. The driver of the small was a woman with two male passengers.Wamekaa tu ndani wakiangali gari ikigongwa hadi pedestrians wakawaambia washuke wambia huo bus driver aache upuzi.Walipotoka kwa gari.Dereva wa basi kuona anakujiwa pia yeye akatoka through the passenger door akatoroka.Akawacha basi hapo.

Back in the day when I used to leave in Eastlando…58 matatus used to go on the wrong side which had fewer vehicles. RuffCutts then owned by our governor used to take 10 mins from muthurwa to buru and that is during the rush hour. Looking back at them days …things are way better now…believe it or not.

Ati 60km/h labda ni Lori unaendesha

Any roads with high matatu traffic sure has madness guaranteed

Anza safari mapema kabla waamke.

Just keep right and keep up the pace, you won’t go past 80kph any ways, the road isn’t that good.

Same

Same manyanga used to pass via muthurwa to Tao to avoid the ‘jammy’ landhies road to CBD itoezee hapo mbele Macha Kangundo stage. Mama mboga walikuwa wanakanyagiwa nyanya

Ati how do we cope? We are the ones in those matatus na hatupendi kucheleweshwa!
