The incident, which occurred on Saturday morning, April 20th, was recorded by concerned passengers from another vehicle.
The arrest follows Transport Cabinet Secretary Kipchumba Murkomen’s expressed concern and vow to take action after viewing the viral video on social media platforms on Monday.
Murkomen questioned the audacity of the car owner to flout traffic regulations on the busy Mombasa Road and speculated whether the reckless behavior was intended to provoke a response from him as the Roads Minister.

“We take this matter seriously, and thanks to a vigilant citizen, we are addressing it accordingly,” Murkomen stated.
