abatically: Because we're not up to that level. Anyone that thinks people in all nations are on equal footing and hence must behave the same simply doesn't understand why Nigeria doesn't work. They're the ones most likely to blame government. Develop the minds of the people and society will develop and they will always get a quality government 1 Like 1 Share |

Today is Horn Free day in Lagos but all I can see around are crazy and daring commercial bus drivers honking their horn like it's Free Horn day...#EkoONiBajeO |

Gooci: I was in a bus sitting by the driver and asked him, if he can drive without using the horn and he said yes. Within 3 seconds, the man blasted the horn. It is possible to drive without hooting the horn IF and ONLY IF, the campaign will continue until it settles in the minds of our people |

Most of the commercial buses previously without horns will definitely fix them esp for this so-called horn free thing |

my friend and I observed dis on d way to work, we drove from mainland to d island and we didn't use d horn. I also noticed dat d compliant rate was really encouraging apart from some stupid idiotic OLOKADAs. I will say d compliant rate is 80%. This is really nice from lagosian. when I saw d news for horn free day last week, I LMFAOL thinking in lagos dis can never be achieved, but I was really marvelled at how people complied even on 3rd mainland bridge. its our impatience that cause us to blast horns most of d time. if we can just be a little bit patient(I know its hard sometimes ) we will have less accidents on the road. KUDOS LASGIDI!!! |

I'm was the bus park, and the 'agbero' "in-charge" walks up to the driver to remind him that there is no hooting today. Impressive.... But just before we were about to make a turn, a lady used her horn. The driver shouted back at her, "you no hear say make you no use horn, idiot!" All the way it has been very quite. Eko oni baje. I've counted jst 7 hoots. I'm impressed. Well, still counting. Perhaps, it because I'm in front of Lagos State secretariat. |

It is actually happening right now in Lagos. The #LagosHornFreeDay is being observed even by Danfo Drivers. The Okada Riders are the worst violators, however, violation is actually quite minimal.

i even heared more horn honking this morning than any other. Before you can impose such on the people, the government aught to put things right first. Not even with most of the trailers on the road without brake, bad road, smoky vehicles and also 'gbamgbamdimdim' musik you hear from music advertisers by the road sides. If people truly heed to this it will only cause more road accidents and deaths than you ever imagined.... my 50cents 1 Like |

Many Nigerians have a short memory. The sort of comments we have on here today explaining why it can never be possible are the types that trailed the introduction of seat belts a few years ago. These days, even Danfo drivers ask passengers in front to strap up. It takes a while to change public habits especially those types that relate to bad driving habits, but where introduced gradually, it certainly catches up and everyone gets involved. I encourage the LASG to introduce this at least 1ce every month for the first six months of 2015 and then 1ce a week for the last six months of 2015. By 2016, many Lagosians will be familiar with not honking for every necessary reason under the sun and will have learned how to catch their breath while driving and being calm. Of course there will be the misfits but I am certain they will be negligible. I tried my best possible not to honk this morning and cos my drive to the office is rather short (three minutes max), most of those driving around didn't horn (not many cars) 2 Likes |

dustydee: Advanced countries my foot! Im not talking about using it indiscriminately but when necessary, they are a lot of mad people on the road you know. As you are driving 2day Sir, when a situation that needs you to make use your horn comes up, don't use. Even in some people deserted villages, u will have to blow your horn for chickens and goats, talkless of a city. I still stand on my words It is impossible for the whole population not to blare their horns. 1 Like |

Dont mind Fashola,all the commercial buses were blasting the horn as they like. Horn free day is not what we want,we want LASTMA to be effective in their duties. You will see them at bus stops watching yellow buses causing serious traffic under their watchful eyes without doing anything. THIS PLOT OF LAND (120 FEETS BY 120 FEETS) IS NOT FOR SALE.
