Stupid Dangerous Road Hogs on Kenyan "Highways"...bikers alert

I used to be an avid long distance biker…well i have been doing motor races ever since i was 5…but sadly i had to stop riding in Kenya because it got to a point where it was very dangerous…i only do cross country events where there is little or no traffic…

Kenyan motorists have no respect for riders or their own safety while on our highway…after many close shaves i hang up my long distance riding boots and gear for good…

i came accross this video from our African Motorcyle diaries group in facebook…(let me paste the link i cant find it in youtube)
must have happened around the escarpments on your way to Naivasha sometimes last year…simply a disaster luckily the rider made it out alive…

i have been through this experience many times and its a nightmare…its only safe to ride in a group or with a support car in front

The onboard camera caught the licence plates and the stupid driver has been found

Kama hujui ku-embed video hii ni upuss. Nani amebakisha nguvu ya kuclick ainue mkono. How are the Marines doings?

embed it for me please…its the forth one on that guys page…mambo ya IT siwezani nayo

Is it the one with the Russian who was almost knocked down by some blue toyota?

Yes than one…uko nayo

Then there’re those bikers who are careless and carefree since one has a 1000cc+ bike thinks he/ she is invinsible.

Thanks…:D:D:D

The videos ziko na Russian text. Kwani page sio local group?

check out the page African motorcyle diaries its more clear there…this rider posted the video after going back home to his country last August…then the kenyan bikers took up the case

Haiwezi clickika

Btw @msalame grace unakuanga umezaa?

There is a point guys were wondering if that is a two way road…i mean why do people overtake like that when there is oncoming traffic…na una overtake ukienda wapi while there is traffic infront and all cars are moving slowly…

If might is right in this country, bikers should carry guns to protect ourselves against such buffoonery

Thanks sana

There was one day i was driving up the old escarpment road on my way to Nairobi…and this trailer came speeding down overtaking another trailer without a care of the world…only two options either to hug the escarpment walls on the left or slide down the valley on the right…stay on your lane and get hit by the Trailer headon…sijawahi tumia hiyo barabara tena
