In a rare move, the largest matatu SACCO in Naivasha pulled over 200 vehicles from the road for two days to address road safety for their passengers following advice from the National Transport Safety Authority (NTSA).

The New Naivasha United Services (NNUS) which mainly plies the Nairobi-Naivasha route decided to undertake a refresher course for all its 400 drivers in a bid to curb road accidents.
