Rwanda is the only country in the east African region where road traffic discipline is highly observed. Wearing helmets while riding on motocycles, fastening seat belts and other road user cautions have become part of Rwandan culture.
However, there have been complaints about the un hygienic sharing of a single helmet by many passengers that ride on moto taxis. This has resulted into an innovative gear known as ‘Smart Cover Head’.
The ‘smart cover head’ is made from artificial tissue that can be disposed of without any hazzadous effects to the environment.
The ‘smart cover head’ is fitted onto the head, on top of which the passenger wears a helmet. The ‘smart cover head’ is used by one person.
the Moto taxi operator is responsible for providing the ‘smart cover head’ to every passenger they carry.
