…r can drive like this for 6 hours in one stretch, with 2 15 minute breaks.
This is possible. The longest continuous drive I have undertaken was a 7-hour trip with one stopover, covering approximately 1,000 km. At some point I was doing 200 km/hr trying to catch up with the MERC and BMW boys on the highway.
You can’t do 1,000km on our roads in 7 hours. You’ll be dead within 4 hours at those speeds.
Kijana ya Nairobi… barabara zingine going at 120km/hr seems very slow…

120km/h
That’s how I know you’re fibbing coz only Nairobians think 120km/h is fast. Because of small wheels.

Yes, 120km/h is too fast on Kenyan road. Kenya is a country of many small cars, old slow trailers, all squeezed on narrow unmarked potholed two way traffic roads with bumps kila mahali.

Kenya or Nairobi?
Kenya, Nairobi is even worse. Not forgeting BodaBoda menace. You can’t enjoy prolonged fast driving on Kenyan roads.

If it weren’t for bumps, you can do 200kph+ here.

Now we agree. You cannot do 200kph+ where there are bends and bumps.
