Roads may be loosely divided into three types: paved with asphalt; broken comprising asphalt, crushed stone and soil; and completely unpaved. Asphalt-covered roads are available, and their quality is sometimes nice. But once you arrive in some small town, the normal road instantly turns into a tank-training ground. As soon as the settlement ends, the road goes back to being normal. And these small towns and settlements abound in Kenya. All other roads can hardly be called roads. They are dusty and extremely bumpy, and you have to drive fast to reach your destination in time.
