I anticipated this reply.

Pronouncements by an outgoing government are NOT government policy and should be treated with contempt. Giving us 18-month ultimatums while we voted out that government is stupid.

In any case, public participation on when and how to implement the changes did not take place, and neither were charges to be levied discussed by Bunge.

Going by your argument, each incoming government should re-create vision 2030 goals. Siyo? How can a nation have long term goals while having leaders who are rotated out every 10 years?

I would prefer that respective governments steer the course towards the long term strategic objectives of our nation. The decision to replace these number plates was informed by the Dusit attack and numerous other tax evasion schemes. I doubt whether any incoming government will scrap it.

Changing fonts is not an emergency. It's even a stretch to call it government policy.

Even if it was both, at this point during transition, it's in bad faith to act like you're directing an incoming government on when, how, and at what cost government policy is to be implemented.

Stop behaving like an idiot low information hustler from Ituramīro. Those morons insist on launching projects they didn't create or work on. Total idlers.

You don't appreciate that the new number plates have a QR code, holographic features and unique NTSA serial numbers. These are plates that can be read from a stationary camera with the data being compared with NTSA, KRA and insurance companies databases for compliance.

"The plates that comply with the amended Traffic Act of 2016 will bear additional features some of which that shall be visible physically and others only to security agencies for ease of tracing in the event they are involved in committing crime.."

Motorists face Sh20, 000 fine for lack of digital car plates

Motorists face a fine of up to Sh20,000 or a jail term of six months if they fail to apply for a new digital number plate in the next 18 months.

The new number plates, which will be installed on cars, motorcycles and trailers, are aimed at stopping double registration of vehicles and taming unscrupulous car importers as the country moves to restore sanity in the motor industry.

The enforcement of the new directive will see the government collect over Sh12 billion given motorists and motorcyclists pay Sh3,000 each for the smart number plate.

Official data shows Kenya had 3.9 million registered vehicles at the end of 2020.

“Any person who contravenes any of the provisions in the traffic rules, which no specific penalty is provided, is liable for a fine not exceeding Sh20,000 or imprisonment for six months or both,” states the Traffic Act.

The new generation number plate is fixed with a radio frequency identification (RFID) microchip embedded on the sticker to facilitate wireless transfer of information between it and mobile police readers or at traffic lights.

The push for the smart plates comes amid concerns about increased duplication of the current ones by tax-evasion cartels and criminals.

The computerised number plates that have anti-counterfeit features, including holograms, watermarks, and laser markers, are expected to make it easier for the police to trace information on particular vehicles and their owners.

Microchip-coated vehicle number plates have been used in other countries to find stolen vehicles.

Interior Cabinet Secretary Fred Matiang’i said the issuance of the new plates will begin with the newly registered vehicles from the KDK series.

The plates are linked to the vehicle chassis number with several inbuilt security features that are easily identifiable to law enforcement and comply with international standards.

“Commissioning of the new generation number plates marks a historic moment in securitising vehicle registration by eliminating loopholes exploited by financial fraudsters and unscrupulous motor vehicle importers,” said Dr Matiang’i.

The Cabinet Secretary said replacement on existing vehicles will start from October 1 with Kenyans given 18 months to comply with the new directive.

The number of car and motorcycle registrations is currently growing at nearly 400,000 per year, with bikes accounting for over 70 percent of the listings.

“There are stickers that were placed in vehicle windshields a while back, but there are no scanners to read them. We hope that as they are rolling out these plates, there will be enough scanners to perform the required task,” said Charles Munyori, the secretary-general of Kenya Auto Bazaar Association.

Mimi simind, but I will wait till the new government comes in. There is no legitimate reason to charge people to acquire plates they already paid for.

I love how clean they are. Hizi za kawaida are just hideous.
