Proposed traffic rules will need disciplined enforcers

Motorists should brace themselves for major changes in June next year that could revolutionise the way Kenyans drive, deal a blow to careless driving and stem the tide of rising carnage on our roads.

The success of the whole system, however, will be dependent on the personnel enforcing the rules. The police, for example, lack a credible system to monitor and evaluate officers selected to work in the Traffic Department.
