Great ideas – how will corruption be stemmed to avoid people bribing their way out of traffic offences? The app needs to make the information transparent and any fines paid automatically registered in the system and within public domain.

After all our President lauded the use of ICTs (and social media) to address development challenges yesterday.

I say yes to this app.

Call it eBarabara!

Thanks for the responses. I believe we can put all these lovely ideas together and move to address the issue.

Am thinking of a mobile app, to deal with this and a host of other issues around us. One that is freely accessible and available to everyone. Some discussion points:- I need to know -

，         How can I proceed – I’ve a no. of ideas and need to work with some developers on the prototype – incubate and develop it.

，         How can such idea be funded, for public good. Are there avenues..?

，         How can we have the idea ( if viable), facilitated with relevant structures such as the legal framework for it to work..?

，         What would be the ideal procedure, taking the above into account, in order to arrive at a National app to make Kenya & beyond a better place..?

I think we are taking this matter casually yet it presents an opportunity for innovators, any time i have been driven around europe i have noted that the drivers are very weary of cameras, most of the GPS systems even detect cameras in the vicinity, this deters any drivers who are tempted to speed or commit any traffic crimes, Cameras are very effective in that they can capture a cars number plate, with these police can go after the owners of the vehicles who will in turn produce the people who were driving the car or take responsibility for the crime. In simple times technology can help the police enforce the law since human beings have a natural affinity to break the law.
