So Gaaga is this new bus…looks great on the inside, one guesses- blame me- that this being a new veichle the shock absorbers are intact and do work….
One also assumes, wildly, that a bus a driver, with the sort of experience of one accustomed to long distance drives (Bunjumbura-kigali-kampala), would know when to slow down, just a meter, how to navigate the sharp bends, and the fact that the way one drives on Rwandan roads is not, cannot, be the same way of driving on Ugandan roads…
I flew off my seat a total of 20times, i worried about my neck hanging in that mini window, my back hurts and…..and there is sand grains stuck in my right eye.
I have to do this same bus ride again, tomorrow afternoon…..
somebody, somewhere, help. lets start with the roads first, then the nutty bus drivers next.

I am actually dreading my first bus journey if I ever get on one, given this sorry state of our roads.

Are u talking about the Gaaga..the bus here in kampala or is that somwhere else..
If its the one here…i think its a good bus, better than most going upcountry. and some very discilplined employees…u should have complained.
