According to the Ekiti State Police Command Spokesperson, he said, “hardly can a day go by without the report of a road traffic crash resulting to loss of lives or permanent disability. He said the analysis of this data shows that the main causes of these road accidents are speed violation, wrongful overtaking, light and sign violation, dangerous driving, tyres bursting, bad vehicle and motor maintenance culture, lack of proper driving education, driving under influence, overloading and fatigue among others”.
Going by the above, Abutu said that the Command shall emplaced tougher control measures to check improper and reckless driving.
He therefore counselled the members of the public, most especially motorists and motorcycle riders to be cautioned and avoid reckless driving, over speeding, driving against traffic lights and signs, one way driving, driving under the influence of alcohol and drugs as well as other traffic offences to avoid arrest and prosecution.
Abutu further pledged the readiness of the Ekiti Police Command to continue to prioritize the safety of lives and properties of the good people of Ekiti State State.
He also told the Ekiti citizens to be acquainted with the traffic rules and strictly abide by them to avoid any untoward incident.
