    "content": "I will look at road safety in three ways. One, we have very poor road designs. Our roads are poorly designed. I have had the opportunity and privilege to travel to a number of developed countries. I saw that countries are doing away with meandering roads. If you go to countries like Britain, Spain, United States of America (USA) or China, you see that they are doing away with meandering roads. I had asked about that sometime back. I was told that straight roads are very expensive. We are talking of deaths. So, cheap is expensive. We all know that. If we keep on having meandering roads from here to Busia, Mombasa and Meru we will keep on losing our people. Nobody should think that he cannot die through road accidents. So, let us address the issue of our road designs. I am not an engineer but a driver. I know that when I am driving on a straight road, there are very low chances of causing an accident. They can happen but chances are lower when the road is straight."
