I was just checking on twitter the requirements for the new generation<br>
driving license by NTSA and i must admit that it is a big joke and a<br>
scam.<br>
<br>
For starters, the requirement that one deposits KES 3150 is a big joke<br>
knowing that this is almost half the salary of workers upcountry<br>
(forget those driving around in government or company owned guzzlers<br>
who pay for everything from office petty cash)<br>
In any case, an ATM card with similar features as the new driving<br>
license is free in local banks, can NTSA clarify what the public is<br>
paying for?<br>
With digitization, why does it take two weeks to obtain this new<br>
driving license?, arent this avenues for promoting corruption?<br>
<br>
