KENYAN TRUCK DRIVERS TAKE A GAMBLE

摘要

A truck driver's life doesn't stop being dangerous at sunset. Nights are risky too, in the stopover towns along Kenya's major highways. Unshaven, scowling, his face drawn with fatigue, Rashid Ahmed shakes his head disapprovingly. Leaning on his truck, a tired and dented old Iveco, the long-distance driver recites the list of his colleagues who have died because of what he calls their "lack of discipline on the road". The man with the greying hair, who has spent more than 20 years driving back and forth on the roads of East and Central Africa, isn't referring to traffic accidents. He's talking about AIDS.
