Truckers demand instant collection of highway fines

For the axle rules to take effect, weighbridge stations will be fitted with automated weighing scales to ensure compliance with the new Traffic Rules 2008, thus ending the era of long queues at manual stations.

Transporters want the government to collect fines from truckers as soon as offences are committed to avoid penalties accumulating for months.

The Kenya Transporters Association says the delays in fine collections for offences detected at weighbridges by the Kenya National Highways Authority (KeNHA) has seen many end up with huge bills that are difficult to pay on demand.
