Lari Sub-County Traffic Police commandant Bernard Indeke has cautioned motorists using the Limuru-Lari-Naivasha road against flouting traffic regulations.
Speaking at Nyambare trading centre in Lari on Sunday, Indeke decried rise in accidents which he blamed on flouting of traffic laws by some motorists.
The traffic police boss said the flouters of traffic regulations will be dealt with according to the law.
Indeke said that cases of motorists over speeding and overtaking from the wrong sides of the road have been reported.
“We have noted with major concerns that some motorists are contravening the traffic regulations. A crackdown to get them out of the roads will be done soon," said Indeke.
The police boss said the officials will be reviewing the footage from installed speed cameras to punish rogue motorists. Indeke at the same time asked bodaboda riders in Lari Town to adhere to road regulations.
He noted that some riders have ignored road regulations a move he said has resulted to increase in road carnages.
On Friday last week, one person was killed when the lorry he was driving collided with a tanker at Nyambare shopping centre.
The driver of the tanker heading to Nairobi is said to have been speeding and overtaking from the wrong side of the road when he collided head on with the other vehicle.
Residents have several times urged the government to erect bumps along the Lari-Limuru road to reduce on accidents.
They say that many lives have been lost along the road in cases of hit and run by over speeding motorists.
Joshua Ndaruma, a shoe shiner at Nyambare trading centre said that a day hardly passes without an accident occurring.
“Cases of hit and run are common along the Lari-Limuru road and the only way to reduce the accidents is by erecting bumps,” he said.
