Road Accidents Claim 300 Lives In Ogun
In 2021, 300 people died in road incidents caused by speed breaches, according to the Federal Road Safety Corps (FRSC), Ogun Sector Command.
According to the FRSC, speeding accounted for almost 77 percent of road crashes in Ogun State in 2021 as a result of human error.
Over 300 people were killed, and over 1200 people were injured in incidents involving over 200 automobiles, according to reports.
Florence Okpe, a spokesman for the Ogun FRSC, said reports revealed that Sienna vehicles were involved in a significant number of crashes, adding that “speed accounted for almost 80% of crashes involving this category of vehicle.”
The FRSC’s Ogun State Sector Command has announced intentions to “install Radar Guns for speed detection and control” in order to stop the tide.
The traffic regulating body stated that it is prepared to continue enforcing the installation of Speed Limiting Devices in commercial vehicles in general, and Sienna vehicles in particular, which Okpe claims have a high rate of crash participation.
