Lagos Govt Cautions Motorist To Obey Traffic Law

Chairman for Lagos State Environmental and Special Offences Unit (Taskforce), CSP Olayinka Egbeyemi, has urged motorist to be obedient to the State Transport Law.

He further warned motorists contravening the 2018 law to desist forthwith or face the wrath of the Law.

CSP Egbeyemi asserted that the Enforcement Unit and other relevant Agencies of the State Government are determined to enforce the Law on recalcitrant motorists who contravene any part of the stipulated traffic rules.

“All motorists, including private car owners, are hereby warned to henceforth desist from all forms of traffic obstructions, driving against traffic (one-way) and plying BRT corridors

“It is disheartening to observe that commercial bus drivers and private car owners are in the habit of disobeying all road signs and signals in contravention to the traffic law, thereby causing impediments to free vehicular movement across the metropolis,” he said.

Egbeyemi also cautioned commercial tricycle and motorcycle operators to stop plying restricted routes as violators will be penalised in accordance with the stipulated Law.

The Chairman enjoined the general public to be law-abiding and report any security breach around them via the Lagos State toll-free lines 112 or 767.
