FRSC In Anambra Intensifies Measures Towards Accident Reduction On Roads

Anambra State Sector Commander of the Federal Road Safety Commission, Mr Adeoye Irelewuyi, says the Command will remodel its approach towards accident reduction in Anambra State this year.

Mr Irelewuyi who disclosed this while discussing preparations of the Command for 2022, said that monitoring will be raised on the installation of speed limiting devices on commercial vehicles while radar guns will also be deployed to detect vehicles running above the prescribed speed.

He also said that a new approach will be adopted to monitor minimum safety standards, especially for heavy duty trucks and articulated lorries, with heavy sanctions awaiting defaulting drivers.

Mr Adeoye Irelewuyi said that though the Command had its fair share of setbacks last year, which affected both enforcement and relationships with the public, strategic collaboration with other agencies helped it to achieve massive results.

He sought the cooperation of all road users, remarking that achieving traffic excellence is a collective ambition of both the Federal Road Safety Commission and the public.
