Today is Friday. I left the gate at the IST Secondary School campus at 7:58.
I drove into the Elementary school at 8:09. That's 11 minutes. So what's true of all those claims that you can't get to Elementary school after 7:30?
I will continue measuring for the next couple of weeks. I will also report the weather and road conditions. Today it was not raining and the roads were dry. The police was still controlling the traffic around the Selander bridge on both sides of the bridge.
Update:
Monday 14-04-08. Left Secondary at 08:00 arrived Elementary 08:13. Dry conditions.
Tuesday 15-04-08. Left Secondary at 08:00 arrived Elementary 08:16. Dry conditions.
Wednesday 16-04-08. Left Secondary at 07:58 arrived Elementary 08:17. Heavy rains.
Thursday 17-04-08. Left Secondary at 07:50 arrived Elementary 08:06. Rain.
(I must say the traffic police is doing a great job getting traffic across the Selander bridge these days)

Not all of us live on the Peninsula. Mikocheni B and Mbezi Beach is a nightmare to drive along after 6.30am. It’s a crawl all the way to the American Embassy and beyond. Members of the community living there (workers and students and teachers) would have to set off as early as they do now to beat the traffic jams. So lucky peninsula dwellers will get the leisurely start. Just think of the rest of us.
So because you don't benefit from it, others are not allowed to benefit either??
Quite a selfish comment, don't you think so?
Why don't you think of others and let them have the leisurely start? It's your choice to go and live elsewhere, just as it is other peoples choice to live on the Peninsula.
And what's more: if school starts later, you can crawl later so you do benefit as well.
