A traffic police officer in Eldoret was treated to a taste
of his own medicine. The officer – notorious for flagging down vehicles and
boarding them – is said to have stopped a trailer.
He commandeered the driver to park by the road side for
flouting traffic rules.
After a few minutes of “negotiations” the officer boarded
the vehicle and directed the driver to drive to a police station in town.
But the driver changed his mind and started speeding
past Eldoret town.
Scared and not sure of the intentions of the driver, the
officer started screaming for help. Engaging the driver was not a safer option
as it could have caused a road accident.
The long and scary drive however came to a halt when the
driver got to a road leading to Elgeyo Maragwet and found a herd of cattle
crossing the road.
This forced him to slow down, offering an opportunity for
the officer to jump out of the vehicle.
