Two Kwale boda boda riders die each day in accidents due to reckless driving, county commissioner Joseph Kanyiri has said. "A majority of the boda boda riders learn driving on the streets and as long as they can ignite the machine they think they are ready rushing to highways," he said. "School children who sat for the recent KCPE examinations are now boda bodas riders," he said. He warned that a major crackdown on boda bodas is looming, saying stern action shall be taken against offenders. Recently, three died and others were seriously injured at Vuga after the tuk tuk they were travelling collided with canter.
