Several passengers are reported to be injured and rushed to hospital after a KBS bus rammed into a tree on Valley Road, Nairobi this Morning.
The driver of the bus is suspected to have lost control of the vehicle forcing him to veer off the road. Speaking of the accident, kenyans have called out on ‘public service vehicles’owners to take responsibility and ensure that their vehicles are frequently serviced before they go on the roads.
@KenyaBusLtd You need to service your vehicles.Your bus are pathetic.When it rains you might think you are outside. Service your vehicles for the better of the common Mwananchi.This accident at Valley Road couldn’t have occurred.

Even with the accident having caused people to be injured some Kenyans went ahead to applaud the driver saying that the accident could have been worse if he had not drifted towards the tree. Ma3route totally agreed with this, they also commented that an appeal should be made for bumps to be put on that particular valley road stretch.
11:51 I aplaud the action taken by the KBS Bus driver if it was a case of break fail. Imagine how steep Valley Road is downhill then traffic jam mid day around Intergrity house? It could be more fatal than you see. via @Hassanique
