Social media racing clip sparks outrage as NTSA promises probe

NAIROBI, Kenya, Oct 26 — The National Transport and Safety Authority (NTSA) has launched efforts to identify motorists captured in a viral video showing dangerous driving on a Nairobi road,…

The authority has asked members of the public to share the registration details of the vehicles involved after footage circulated online showing a Mercedes-Benz C-Class engaging in high-speed racing and dangerous overtaking on a dual carriageway.

In a statement responding to the incident, NTSA condemned the conduct as reckless, saying it endangered not only the drivers but also passengers and other road users.

“This is reckless and unacceptable. Safety must never be compromised when lives are on the line,” the authority said.

The footage appears to show the Mercedes-Benz approaching other vehicles at high speed and attempting to overtake from the left, nearly colliding with another motorist.

Collision-warning alarms can be heard as the occupants react and the driver brakes sharply.
