State prosecutor Ann Munyua asked the court to impose severe punishment on the two passengers who endangered their lives by sitting on the door of a fast-moving vehicle.

Ms Munyua asked the court to take judicial notice of the rampant accidents that have been witnessed in recent times.

The prosecutor said everyone has a duty to protect their lives whether they are pedestrians, passengers or drivers.

'The two accused persons were seen in a dangerous position in the fast-moving Mercedes Benz. They were sitting on the window of the high-end vehicle,' Ms Munyua said.

She also told the magistrate that the two passengers could even stand out of the window and wave at other motorists.

Police are also hunting down the driver of the Mercedez Benz KCX 959B to file charges against her, Ms Munyua stated.

Masongo and Igadwa are charged with riding in a dangerous position contrary to Section 61(1) read with Section 61(4) of the Traffic Act Cap 403 Laws of Kenya.

They pleaded guilty as charged and then asked for mercy saying they had learnt their lesson.
