These men ride in the opposite direction even on one-way roads. They don’t respect traffic lights as well. What is surprising is that they do this even in the presence of traffic officers.
Are these men untouchable? Why don’t traffic officers raise a finger against them? If there is someone in charge, it is time to restore order in Kampala. The bodaboda men have become a menace.

SIR — It seems bodaboda cyclists in this country have their own set of traffic laws. But what is is most annoying is that although the traffic Police are all over the place they seem to be interested only in cars!
