Totally Loco - motion

I took a selfie on a piki-piki on the road to the new school.

Clumps of motor-cycles wait in strategic locations to grab piki-piki fares who jump on the back like this lady - no helmet provided. In this case she has been re-assured by the petrol tank declaration.

Dalla-dallas are ubiquitous and cheap: the 3km trip to town from our lodgings costs TSh 400. Usually Toyota Hiace vans with seats for 18 people, they can be seen everywhere running their own bus routes into town, crammed with as many as 26 people inside. If you can't fit inside, hang on the outside or get a tow. Same goes for the piki-piki ride - only 3 on this one.

Slightly up market are the Indian made tuk-tuks who want TSh 1000 even if they manage to get 4 people inside.

Dalla-dallas like to flaunt the rules of the road. Here we have one trying to drive up a one-way street.もっと詳しく
