Three teams leading the title race in the elite TNM Super League are in tricky fixtures on Sunday that will surely have...
The Muthalikas have proven to be dangerous people.Very cruel or callous. Bingu made us suffer with fuel shortages. Peter is making us suffer through fines, power outages, etc. This country is in the hands of wizards.
This is not a question of reckless driving but affordability to pay the fines. While some of us are able to pay the fines think about the many poor drivers whose salaries are below K40,000. At the same time,think about those who are above the law like ministers and the president himself. Do they pay these fines? No. The judges.Do they apy fines? No. The policemen who own vehicles. Do they pay fines no? It is the common man that suffers. In Malawi there is selective application of the law. It is very stupid to connect everything to MCP. Can… Read more »
It is not the increased fees and penalties that will prevent or indeed reduce accidents on the roads of Malawi, it is the provision of corrupt free traffic police on the roads of Malawi, full stop.
Whilst I side with the opposition MCP on most social ills currently buffeting nyasaland, I differ with them on this one. This is distasteful opportunism on their part. There is too much reckless driving on Malawi roads these days. Each and every day, you always see outrageous conduct on our roads. It’s sad that as a nation, we seem to have embraced disregard of laws/regulations on many development frontiers. For instance in this case, we seem to be accepting “it’s okay to down a bottle of Jameson and cruise home”. Behind this warped thinking underlies a mentality that leads us… Read more »
I don’t know what your are writing, its difficult to comprehend you long writing.
To control frequent occurrence of accidents on the road is to confiscate driving licences of the culprits as the Traffic police in the UK do, not charging motorists exorhbitantly. Once you confisticate a licence you can allow the offender may have to wait for a period of at least two years before they can be back on the steering wheel again. Wayne Rooney is serving this kind of punishment. You will see people will be more careful on the road osati zokuba ndalamazo iyayi kenako zikalowe m’matumba mwa anthu a DPP ndiye chani.
How about improving the conditions of the roads before blaming the accidents fully on motorists? Roads are full of potholes and are narrow. These thieves (government and road traffic officials) travel to countries with good road infrastructure and I wonder why they never want Malawi to be like that? Raising penalty fees only won’t stop accidents, it’s a combination of factors. Come and blame it on road users once you’ve fixed the roads!!
DPP led government no vision at all
Mwina ngozi za pa mseu zimenezi zikuchitika chifukwa cha kuzimazima kwa magetsi. Passenger ndiye victim wamkulu pomwe ma minibus akulowetsa ndalamazo m’matumba mwawo. Akapha munthu pangozi iye angolipira chindapusa pomwe ena aluza munthu wawo. Ndiye mbuzi zina nkumati akufuna ndalama za campaign. Malawians when will you stop dying silently. Minibus owners are business people. They don’t care about your lives. Yet you are blindly backing them.
This is simple propaganda. The political plan was to use road traffic and then gvt should come with a reversed decision so that people should think that the government is now listerning.SHAMEFUL
ma fines anali too heavy awachotseretu mumangopanga zinthu panokha chifukwa chani zimenezo timati dictatorship
