Trotro conductor dangling on a bus

Accra trotro conductor dangles on a bus in motion

This trotro conductor dangles on a bus in motion. Its a common spectacle in Ghana to see these driver assistants perch alongside the doors of mini buses as they call out to passengers or announce routes.  Typically, the trotro bus would be moving slow about 5 km per hour and its a technique applied by these mates to maintain motion if no passenger boards and to have enough brake to pick up one.  Its so precarious.
