along the Mai Mahiu–Narok Road
The Authority takes this opportunity to condole with the families and friends of those who lost their loved ones in the tragic road traffic crash that occurred in the Nairegia area along the Mai Mahiu–Narok Road.
We assure the public that we are working closely with the National Police Service to conduct a comprehensive investigation into the circumstances that led the driver to lose control of the vehicle, resulting in the head-on collision.
From this investigation, we will develop evidence-based recommendations focused on the key priority areas outlined in the National Road Safety Action Plan (2024–2028) for implementation by all relevant stakeholders.
Further, as part of our ongoing road safety efforts, Operation Watoto Wafike Salama will be intensified nationwide to ensure the safe passage of our children during the back-to-school period.
A multi-agency team will heighten strict road safety compliance checks across the country and we urge all motorists to exercise the highest level of responsibility while on the roads.
We call on parents, school administrations, and school transport operators to prioritize the safety of our children during this period.
All school transport operators are expected to present their fleets for inspection to confirm that the vehicles are mechanically sound and safe for transporting children.
The Authority remains committed to working with all stakeholders to enhance road safety in our country.
