Frsc Speed Limiter Is Not Only A Dumb Archaic Idea But A Rape Of 9ja Citizens by EmmyKween(f): 4:21pm On Aug 16, 2016 |
Speeding is an age long problem in the world in general Many countries have long recognized the danger of speed and have used several method to develop means of tackling the issue of over-speeding. The recent call by the FRSC to impose a speed limiting device on commercial vehicle is not only disgusting but a tyrannical LAZY man approach to problem solving. Speed limit enforcement is an organized responsibility of a Body (FRSC in the case of Nigeria) aimed at checking that road vehicles are complying with the speed limit enforced on roads and highways. Methods used in most countries include roadside speed traps which are set up and operated by the police and automated roadside 'speed camera' systems which may incorporate the use of an automatic number plate recognition system. Before enforcing a speed limit, you must put in place specific Limits backed with signs installed at this locations reminding motorist of the appropriate speed for that location. Unfortunately this is hardly the case in Nigeria. The corps marshal of FRSC Dr. Oyeyemi claim Speed is the major cause of crashes in Nigeria with commercial vehicles accounting for 65 per cent of the crashes,’’. IF 65% OF Road Traffic Accident is caused by over speeding as claimed by FRSC, Installing the Speed Limiter in every commercial vehicle in Nigeria means the speed limiter will do 65% of the Job of Road safety official thus minimizing the need for the Road Safety Corp. To ensure Nigeria money is used efficiently, I will recommend 65% of the total workforce of Road safety sacked as the speed limiting device will conveniently do their job for them. The speed limiter is more like a Lazy man approach to problem solving, a rape to the common citizen and a tyrannical imposition on the poor masses in the face of dwindling economy. Nigerians shouldn’t just sit down and allow the Government and FRSC shove such nonsense in their throat. There is no statistically correct data to properly ascertain the major causes of accident in Nigeria. The assumption that speed is the major cause is a laughable hypothesis as FRSC cannot boost of such technology to ascertain such claims......................................................... #copied from http://puzziehil..com.ng/2016/08/frsc-speed-limiter-is-not-only-dumb.htm 1 Like
