Out-Engineering Chaos: Civil Engineers Explain Kenya’s Road Problems

تفصیل

Why are there so many speed bumps? Do speed limits actually make sense, and can roads be designed in a way that forces better driving behavior?In this episode of Gearhaus, Kalasing and Vanilla sit down with June and Gakii, two civil engineers by profession, to break down the real issues affecting Kenyan roads, and it’s deeper than just traffic.We get into:- The logic (and misuse) of speed bumps- Why speed limits are set the way they are- The problem with disorganized traffic flow- Lack of standardization in road design- Whether engineering can compensate for poor driving habitsThis is a proper discussion of how infrastructure, policy, and human behavior all collide on our roads, and what needs to change to make driving safer and more predictable.If you’ve ever wondered why driving in Kenya feels unnecessarily chaotic, this episode will connect the dots for you.Guests:June MutwiriVictoria GakiiFollow Gearhaus on:TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@itsgearhausInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/itsgearhaus/WhatsApp: https://www.whatsapp.com/channel/0029Vb7MoK22Jl8Epvkjrz2IGearhaus is a Palahala Media Group production.
