The National Transport and Safety Authority (also known as NTSA) is a statutory organization created by a law passed by the Kenyan Parliament.

In the end, its major goal is to reduce the number of fatalities caused by transportation-related factors.
And, today, we examine the several NTSA contacts available for inquiries, grievances, and feedback.
