I just witnessed the most dumb founding yet remarkable thing. Si you know Paradisos? I'll take a moment to explain to those who were raised in the leafy suburbs.
Paradisos are the big buses that ply the Githurai-CBD return route. They are characterized by insanity, inability to stay on one lane for more than two seconds, ability to blare full lights on salon cars blocking their way, full circus ability to get as close as possible to the salon cars from behind(you can almost see drops of sweat falling from the back of the salon car). Given a chance, Paradisos would have wings. Did I mention they also have conductors,(who happen to be humans) swinging out of the doors. You see them being blown by the wind like your children's nappies on the clothing lines.So I saw one of them as I was standing on Park Road and what I am trying to say is the bus had its indicator on. Yaani, the driver actually told the rest of the motorists that he was turning left into the bus stage. He didn't suddenly swerve off the road, he didn't suddenly brake then turn, he indicated and gently changed lanes into the bus stage. Would you look at that. Paradisos actually have indicators and are actually driven by humans. Would you look at that!
