A truck ferrying cars on Sunday evening overturned at Tsavo along the Nairobi-Mombasa highway, leaving the cars sprawled across the highway.
Videos and photos shared online showed the truck blocking the entire highway, forcing other road users to seek alternative ways to traverse the scene.
Other drivers resorted to squeezing through the edge of the road, and traffic started building due to the disruption.

Those injured were treated and discharged from the Londiani hospital, while 10 teachers were only left with minor injuries.
