"content": "Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir, I beg to move:- THAT, the Traffic Act (Cap.403) S.119(1) after paragraph (n) be deleted. The reasons why I am asking for the deletion of Section 119(1) are as follows:- One, the alcoblow, which the Attorney-General wants to introduce will be subjected to abuse. First of all, it is not health-friendly. It is a health hazard. If you have one particular kit where you want each and every person to blow, we are going to be infected with tuberculosis. You are aware that there is a new strain of tuberculosis! Secondly, I am asking for the deletion of this Section because the Attorney-General wants to copy the westerners. The westerners are organised. When they want you to blow in that kit, you are subjected to numerous kinds of exercises before you are asked to blow. One of them is that the police will ask you, after trailing you, that you have to count 100 backwards. Secondly, they will ask you to walk in a straight line. Thirdly, they will ask you if you are drunk. But the Attorney- General wants to copy the westerners without realising the implications. First of all, it will be subjected to extortion. Anybody who is coming from town after 9.00 p.m. will be subjected to alcoblow. That is not right! I am pleading with my colleagues that, in order for us not to have September 12, 2007 PARLIAMENTARY DEBATES 3873 extortioners; not to be infected with tuberculosis, let the Attorney-General, first of all, put some health-friendly mechanisms in place, in order for us to go for alcoblow. Mr. Muturi will second my amendment!"
