National Transport and Safety Authority (NTSA) published names of 39 motorists who were arrested and failed to turn up for court proceedings after having been released on bail.
The names were published in local dailies with most of the offenders being from Nairobi and Eldoret.
NTSA acting Director of Road Safety John Muya told the Nation that warrants of arrest have been issued by courts in which the motorists were supposed to appear to answer to charges.
“These are offenders who paid cash bails and were supposed to attend court on a certain day but failed to do so. Normally, those arrested between Friday and Sunday pay cash bail and are given a date to appear in court,” said Muya as quoted by Nation.
The culprits reportedly took high levels of alcohol that teh recommended quantity and three of them are said to have been of female gender.
