Ogun Govt and FRSC Join Forces to Train Commercial Drivers and Slash Road Crashes


0

The Ogun State Emergency Management Agency (OGSEMA), collaborating with the Federal Road Safety Corps (FRSC), conducted a comprehensive one-day training session for members of the National Union of Road Transport Workers (NURTW) last Saturday. The workshop focused on enhancing knowledge of traffic regulations to curb the rising incidence of road accidents.

This initiative aims to equip commercial drivers with updated safety protocols and practical skills to foster safer driving habits, thereby reducing the frequency of crashes on Ogun State’s busy highways. Recent statistics from the FRSC indicate that road accidents account for a significant percentage of fatalities nationwide, underscoring the urgency of such educational programs.

By targeting commercial drivers-who are often on the roads for extended periods-this collaborative effort seeks to promote responsible driving behavior and adherence to traffic laws. The training included interactive sessions, real-life scenario analyses, and discussions on the consequences of reckless driving, emphasizing the shared responsibility of all road users in ensuring safety.

Ogun State’s proactive approach, in partnership with federal agencies, reflects a growing commitment to reducing road traffic incidents through continuous education and enforcement. Similar programs in other Nigerian states have demonstrated measurable improvements in driver compliance and a decline in accident rates, highlighting the potential impact of sustained awareness campaigns.

The Ogun government and FRSC continue to advocate for regular refresher courses and stricter monitoring of commercial drivers to maintain high safety standards on the roads.
