Talkers, please ensure that your driving licence is signed. If not signed you pay a cash bail of KSH 5000 for unsigned licenses

Don worry sir,the news/rules will only last for a week ,then we forget ::ata tinted windows zilkuwa
plans za kubadilisha hizi primitive dl to modern ones zilienda wapi
I dont think the cops will forget this in a hurry, NTSA are forgetting that the booklet we cal a DL is really embarasing in this day and age, tumepewa hekaya na various administrations eti wanabadirisha na hio ikaishia hapo na pia usisahau polisi mombasani hawakuja kuangalia bahari.
Kwani how difficult is it to sign the damn thing? Does it require a lawyer or a special ink? Vitu zingine Ni za kujitakia hata Kama Ni za ufala.

Huyu najua he got involved na “I know my rights” drama na makarau! Once you show these cops you are hard headed and unwilling to part na something small, utakipata! This ninja wont try that S*%t again, he has now been recruited to the society of “huwezi shindana na ndovu kunya, lipa tu iishe”.

What’s the penalty for not signing?
[ATTACH=full]14627[/ATTACH]
i.e part 4 of the traffic act.
Hii gari ni ya Wanjohi wa Kigogoine.
Skiliza Hot 96 leo jioni. I would begin by telling you what that muzungu voice keeps repeating. “Poa moto Kijana! Ukiwa na moto, unazimwa kama mushumaa!”
Eh, that it is a cash cow, that’s true. New? No! why? Because the Traffic Act was passed in 1953. Fefte Fur-king three! Look at what the Traffic Act says at Section 37:
- (1) Driving licences and provisional licences shall be in the prescribed form, and there shall be affixed to each driving licence a photograph of the licence holder which shall be impressed with the official stamp of the Registrar.
B The signature of the licence holder shall also be affixed to the licence.
[/B]
Having that your licence:)signed? It is and has always been a mandatory legal requirement.
In case you haven’t figured it out yet, we sign the Fur-king thing because the law says we must.
Section 37 does not prescribe a penalty for failing to sign the licence. So cops have no reason to arrest you and homo-sex your day up. Right? WRONG! The legislators hid this provision somewhere deep in the folds of the Traffic Act:
- (1) Any person who acts in contravention of or fails to comply with the provisions of this Act, or who acts in contravention of or who fails to comply with the conditions of any licence, order, demand, requirement or direction issued under or in pursuance of this Act, shall be guilty of an offence.
And this here is what you are facing:
(2) Any person who is guilty of an offence under this Act for which no penalty
is otherwise provided shall be liable—
B for a first offence, to a fine not exceeding one hundred thousand shillings;[/B]
Haya. Mashauri nd’o hayo. Uamuzi ni wako.
Eh, what does this have to do with failure to sign a Driving Licence? Me naah get de bomboclaa’ connexion.
eeeeeh… mkubwa, penalties kwa hii section zilikuwa amended last year. Cheki Act No. 19 of 2014, s. 40.
Wah! nimecheki:

The first thing I was taught while taking my driving lessons was that I should sign the Driving License as soon as I received it. Those arguing are those who took informal driving lessons from friends, relatives and those estate driving schools.
Why don’t you go a step further and challenge the legality of renewing the damn thing after every year or after every 3?
