:: Make Roads Safe

Death on our roads has continued to grow at alarming rates. In partnership with the local and international bodies the AA of Kenya has remained at the fore-front against this vice. In Kenya alone, about 1000 accident cases were reported in the year 2006. Out of these, a total of 14000 were fatal while 1400 were hospitailes.

In December 2005 the AA of Kenya initiated the Think before you drive campaign. The campaign was sponsored by the FIA and the Tyre makers.

To sensitise the public on road safety issues, numerous road safety campaigns were carried in many parts of the country. These included conducting of seminars to the Kenyan motorists including public service vehicle drivers (matatu crews) and school-going population (the future motorist). Leaflets on proper road usage literature and tools such as pressure gauges were given out during these campains

The AA of Kenya regularly conducts defensive driving seminars and the Lady motorists auto clinics. During these seminars, the attendants are taught on ways to curb the road death menace and the new and emerging techniques.
