    "content": "Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, last year in July, my daughter who goes to Loreto Primary School was on a school trip to Meru. But because there is total disregard for the rules, a school bus that is supposed to carry 51 people was carrying over 80 people on a long distant trip. Somewhere along the way, the driver was over-speeding. The vehicle was not in good mechanical condition. The vehicle rolled and a couple of kids died. Seven kids had their limbs amputated because of that carelessness. Only four years ago, my follower was involved in an accident along the Kisumu- Busia Road that ended her life because of the carelessness of an un-roadworthy lorry driver. Every day, traffic accidents occur that take the lives of even members of one family in a colossal proportion. Something has to happen. You can blame the police. You can blame the authorities. But it is the duty of this House to act. We should realize that the laws that we have are archaic and are not sufficient to deter people from recklessness and lawlessness on the streets."
