A dramatic accident involving a boda boda and a black Toyota Prado at a busy intersection has ignited an intense online debate.
The incident, captured on dashcam footage, shows the SUV colliding with the motorcycle, causing it to topple over before ramming into it as it lay on the ground.
The video, which surfaced online, reveals the boda boda rider attempting to cross the intersection as the Prado approached at significant speed.
The impact of the collision sent the rider sprawling, with bystanders rushing to the scene moments later.
The footage has polarized opinions on social media. Some blame the boda boda rider for alleged recklessness and failure to yield to the larger vehicle, citing the need for stricter enforcement of road safety rules for motorcyclists.
Others argue that the Prado driver was speeding and should have exercised more caution when approaching the intersection.
A third group contends that both parties were at fault, emphasizing the chaotic nature of many intersections in urban areas, often exacerbated by inadequate traffic controls.
As authorities investigate the incident, the video serves as a stark reminder of the importance of vigilance and adherence to traffic laws to prevent such accidents.
