Makerere University Tech Pitch: RoadRescue UG (Group 18)

91% of drivers in Uganda break down, but the real nightmare isn't the mechanical failure—it's the fear of fake mechanics, getting overcharged, and feeling unsafe at night. In this video, Group 18 introduces RoadRescue UG, a game-changing tech platform designed to eliminate the anxiety of being stranded on Kampala roads and upcountry highways. Developed for the IST2106 Technopreneurship course at Makerere University, this pitch reveals how we are using channels drivers already trust (Calls, WhatsApp, and USSD) to bring safety, verified providers, and transparent pricing to the roadside assistance industry.
