Hapo Kwa Subaru it’s true…he will race you even when you not aware you were racing. Ukimpita he rather stop where he was going until he overtakes you…hata Kama unefika kwa gate yako

So what will.you say about probox and NZE drivers?

Wa probox tulisha kubali hao ni mental case…don’t even glance at him when he’s overtaking you.

1. Cops hate dirty cars, get your documents in order too

2. Kenya has very many drunk drivers

3. Give a matatus way, the driver is probably high on weed and drunk on changaa

4. Low speeds are boring but you’ll rarely get in a compromising situation

5. Don’t drive at night if you can afford a cheap lodging, better sleep in the car

6. Have 50/100 bob kwa dashboard/driving license. It will save you 20k and a lot of time.

7. Driving a car, any car, will earn you respect

8. Kenyan roads are forever under construction, it never ever ends

9. A fuel guzzler will literarily bankrupt you

10. Performance cars/bikes attract men, the average woman can’t tell the difference between a 1500cc Impreza and a 500hp sti wrx

One of them overtook me along the Londiani Muhoroni road nikiwa na Discovery and from the way he eyeballed me, ni kama alikuwa anataka race. The boyish thing in me kicked in briefly nikataka kumuonesha vumbi but somehow I found a way of suppressing it. Watu ghaseer sana.

True in addition to endangering everyone including the fool you are racing. Reserve that power for passing traffic na kurudi kwa lane.
It always amazes me how someone might think that a 1500cc NA petrol engine can race and outrun a 3000cc turbocharged diesel or in your case a 3700cc petrol engine probably turbocharged.

@AchanaNaMimi

kila mtu kwa barabara ni mwenda, you are the only sane driver. Ukikua na hio mentality(basically defensive driving) , you can avoid many accidents from the front and sides

Facts kabisa. Hii ndio survival tip

[Alleycat]

1.Usiwahi tailgate bus kama zile za Mombasa while overtaking and assuming you’re safe behind them and can squeeze in right after they get in.
2.While overtaking,don’t assume the oncoming driver will slow down for you or give you way to get back in your lane.Give yourself enough space,not force it.

@Ben Dover

Wewe naona ukona experience by the way you’ve articulated the points…coz zote umegonga point

Nimelala kwa kichaka a few times because of ignorance

I learnt this first hand on the Northern Bypass one day while heading to Two Rivers. My life flashed before my eyes and had the oncoming lorry not swerved, I would’t be alive. I owe that driver a beer or two.

Being one with the car. Every time you get on the wheel just understand the moti, how it accelerates,breaking system, corner navigations etc. 15 years with no accident or scratch on my wheels.

[kush_yule_mnono]

As a driver in Kenya, below is a must;

1. Some snacks or food kwa gari ni muhimu incase you have to spend a long time on the road due to unforeseen snarl ups.
2. Ata kama gari ni mpya, always have a kibuyu ya kubeba gede. You might be forced to reroute and gas stations are not evenly distributed in major roads in Kenya.
3. Know a bit about simple car mechanics ama have a speed dial to your trusted mechanic.
4. Do not be the good samaritan on the roads. Utanyang’anywa kila kitu.
5. Avoid unnecessary road rage and always be prepared for the worst.
6. Usibishane na madereva wa ma3, they have nothing to loose unless you are a big fish in Kenya.
7. Defensive driving ni muhimu. It’s all about how to not expose yourself and playing it safe whenever you are on the road.
8. Don’t share your car keys with anyone else. Moti inaogopa mikono mob.

What’s your average speed on the highway?

[ChifuMbitika]

You are the only sane driver and everyone else is mad

[Uncle_wa_rangerover]

@Alexanderr

What’s your average speed on the highway?

I do 80-100

[ChifuMbitika]

@Alexanderr

What’s your average speed on the highway?

130-150km/h

[Muthafari]

@ChifuMbitika

130-150km/h

Also, avoid driving side by side or alongside huge vehicles like lorries and buses for extended periods. Hata staying infront of a truck can be deadly.

Kuna vile unaweza set kadudu infront a truck na driver hakaoni kabisa.

The blindspots on these vehicles are quite vast. Jamaa anaweza kuwa hakuoni kwa side mirror kabisa kwanza akipiga kona.
