ROAD TRAFFIC CRASHES IN "EMBER MONTHS"
It is a known fact that there is always increase in road traffic crashes (RTC) in the final four months of the year i.e. September to December, commonly referred to as "Ember Months" which often resulted in lost of lives.
Increase in travel to visit communities, villages, towns or cities to attend wedding/burial ceremonies, AGM or a number of cultural activity and religious festival are some of the major reason for road traffic crashes during these period.
During these period most drivers are involved in traffic regulations violation by over speeding, overloading, dangerous/wrongful overtaking, driving under the influence of alcohol/drugs and so on.
Another major contributing factor to road traffic crashes is that most drivers lack basic knowledge of traffic rules and regulations that guide safe driving and efficient sharing of the road with other road users.
All drivers are therefore, advised to be knowledgeable in the act of basic driving techniques, obey traffic rules and regulations, know and obey traffic signs and symbols and have good understanding of risk on the road.
REMEMBER "AVOID SPEEDING, OVERLOADING AND THE USE OF UNSAFE TYRES TO ARRIVE ALIVE"
