it's so sad that the owner of this thread can value making the front page more than saving human. as at the time this picture was taking road safety guys have not arrive and this accident happened right in my front because we were all coming from camp together but we were on different bus, infact 2 of the persons that did not die in this accident actually beg to board our own bus but it was already full. my point is that the poster would have probably save some souls first before rushing to have a snap shot. the job was left to only a few of us while majority were busy snapping even when the road safety guys came they warned everyone against this. the bus driver ran away without injury the trailer driver ran away God knows Best and He is the Best Judge 1 Like |

Themaingate: it's so sad that the owner of this thread can value making the front page more than saving human. ^^^^ Can you give us the details of what happened and how the accident occurred? From what you posted it seems a trailer was involved? I want to follow up on this matter so an eyewitness' account would be invaluable. Please give details - time of accident, location, sequence of events etc. This info would be very much appreciated. Thanks. |

VolvoS60: From my perspective we as a people decided to put unsafe automobile on bad road drive carelessly and when a series of related bad situations get together there was a fatal accident on that location. This kind of accident happen way to frequent for us not to be able to reduce. It does not matter who was there because it could anyone next time we just have to change our culture this is way past behavior. There is nothing wrong with documenting things are they are if you can because for those who van make changes they see thing as is not as told |

sultaan: ^^^^ I actually want to pursue this matter further so an eyewitness account does matter. It will help me when I want to refer to the incident. There is a point I have been trying to make from page 1 of this thread. Most roads are public goods. We all need government to make it possible for us to use public goods safely. It is good to educate people about good road etiquette. It is good to appeal to people's sense of responsibility concerning the safe use of our roads. But in the end, that will not be enough. It is the threat of punishment that will be far more effective in keeping dangerous drivers in check. Everything goes back to the accountability of governments to their people. The solution to the problem is a chain of fear. Dangerous drivers should be afraid of the government. The government should be afraid of the electorate. The electorate should be afraid of needless, premature death on our roads. And the circle is now complete. When roads are poorly designed, poorly constructed and poorly maintained, people WILL die. When there are no consequences for driving under the influence (of shepe, kain-kain, shine your eye, burukutu etc), people WILL drink and drive and people WILL die. When there are no consequences for unsafe, poorly maintained vehicles, people WILL die. When there are no consequences for illegal acquisition of vehicle & driver's licenses, people WILL die. And so on. These points I have listed above are government responsibilities, full stop. Any government that cannot fix these things does not deserve to be called a government and should be severely punished by the voting public. The problem is this: does the voting public even KNOW that the government owes them a duty to fulfill the responsibilities I have listed above as well as throughout this thread? I leave you all to answer. Everything rests on this question. |
