A Guardian bus flipped over on the Kisii-Kaplong road Sunday morning after the driver tried to avoid hitting a truck head-on. The driver had been passing another vehicle when he spotted the oncoming lorry and swerved hard right, making the bus roll. The bus carried passengers heading to various stops in Kisii County, with Nyamarambe in Gucha South Sub-County as the last destination.

Helpful people nearby rushed to help the injured reach hospitals like Sotik Sub-County Hospital. Police officers came to investigate as concerns grew about some passengers having serious injuries. People at the scene said nobody died in the crash, though many suffered major injuries from the impact. This crash adds to many recent accidents on this road, where traffic problems have increased lately.

Two crashes involving a matatu and a private car killed five people in March, leading many to ask for better safety rules. Officials promised more patrols and speed limit enforcement to reduce accidents. Many want the Kisii-Sotik road widened since its narrow design gives drivers little room when facing oncoming traffic. The government said last year they would redesign the road, but money problems delayed these plans.
