When they crash into you, one of them zooms off with the bike and the rest force you to take the rider to hospital. If the rider isn't badly injured they will still force you to cough something up for "repairs" even if it's the boda that was in the wrong. If you refuse in either instance wanachoma gari. It's pure classism. They hate drivers and are always itching for a reason to attack or harass them. A few convictions with serious jail time may deter such incidents. As it is, they will continue because the culprits know they can get away with it.

During the Thursday incident, which occurred along the Kitengela-Athi River road at around 7:30 pm, a Nissan Juke Reg. No. KDG 265E reportedly hit a motorcycle, en route to Kitengela, injuring a pillion passenger in the process.
"The driver, Conex Kemunto Onengo, then sped off towards Namanga general direction through the Arusha service lane and hit pedestrian Bernard Mutinda, aged 32 years, injuring him on the left leg below the knee and his son Hashley Baraka aged 4 years who complains of chest pains," a police report documenting the incident reads in part.
"She drove towards the Old Namanga Road and hit an unknown motorcycle, which the rider escaped, injuring the pillion passenger Damaris Wandia aged 28 yrs, who is expectant, on the left leg and bruises on both hands."
Kemunto reportedly injured another pedestrian before encountering rowdy boda boda operators at Enkare who blockaded the road and surrounded her vehicle.
"She then hit a pedestrian, Joseph Mutiso Wambua, injuring him the right leg and right shoulder. She then drove through Tarmac Road, exiting the Shell Petrol Station at Enkare, where the vehicle was blocked by rowdy Boda Boda riders," the police report reads.
"The vehicle was extensively damaged with stones and was towed to police station awaiting inspection. The co-driver Christopher Mutua was beaten and sustained injuries on the upper lip, two broken front upper teeth and bruises on his forehead."
