Matatu operators have now come out to complain over the preferential treatment being given to Probox operators.
Led by their lobby chairman Sam Ndiege, the operators said many Probox vehicles violate traffic rules as stipulated by the National Transport and Safety Authority.
“A Probox should carry four passengers, but they carry up to 13 people,” he said.
Under the Matatu Owners Association in Nyanza, the operators said they are tired of being harassed by police officers who ignore Probox operators that violate traffic rules.
They have therefore threatened to disrupt public transport within 21 days if their grievances are not addressed.
