There are many means of transport available in our country. The recent introduction of SGR as a mean of transport made it easy for long distance travels from Mombasa to Nairobi. However, despite the likes or railway transport, air transport and water transport, road transport is the commonly used, in fact, most used by people around the country. Prepare for the challenges you will encounter when using various vehicles moving around the country. Here are common experiences every person goes through in their commute:
Arrogant conductorsYou know how rough matatu touts can be right? They engage in uncouth behaviors like hiking fares, holding on passengers change and even forcing passengers to jump from moving vehicles. They even go ahead and abuse some of their passengers.
Loud music vehiclesMost city vehicles are characterized by loud noisy music. Matatu owners believe a vehicle without such music will not be liked by passengers. They do all they can to make their vehicles attractive and appealing to passengers. Most of us just don’t like this loud music.
Passengers with too much colognePeople got various weird motives. Like those who enjoy too much cologne not knowing how bad it affects their follower passengers. More so, most people are allergic to even small weird smell, and thus they suffer a lot sitting next to people with too much cologne in vehicles.
The drunk passengersDrunk co-passengers are rarely on board. However, don’t make a mistake of sitting next to one when they board a vehicle with you. They will disrupt you all the way on your journey making you feel uncomfortable. Some will even insult you for not talking to them.
Sleepy co-passengersWe understand that many people who travel in the evening are from their jobs and very tired. However, this doesn’t give you any reason to doze off in vehicles. Sitting next to them is such boring as your shoulder will become their pillows, not forgetting the irritating snoring some of them does.
