2026 - Boda Boda riders have long been associated with reckless maneuvers
on Kenyan roads, often leading to accidents, some fatal - that could easily
have been avoided.
A trending dashcam video making rounds online has reignited
debate after capturing a shocking incident involving a rider who was hit by a
tour van following a dangerous move.
In the footage, the rider is seen weaving through a busy
road, seemingly oblivious to oncoming traffic.
His risky shortcut ended abruptly when he collided with the
van.
Though he appeared to sustain serious injuries, the sack of
charcoal he was carrying absorbed part of the impact, cushioning the blow.
Moments later, he was seen limping around the scene, visibly
shaken but alive.
The video has sparked widespread outrage among netizens,
many castigating the culture of recklessness that continues to plague the boda
boda sector.
Social media users expressed frustration that such behavior
not only endangers the riders themselves but also puts other road users at
grave risk.
