FRSC to reduce road crashes in Ogun through use of radar guns

The Ogun Command of the Federal Road Safety Corps (FRSC) has reiterated its readiness to reduce road crashes on the highway using radar gun technology.
The FRSC sector commander in the state, Anthony Uga, said this in an interview with journalists on Monday in Ota, Ogun.
According to him, the radar gun, which monitors vehicles’ speed, will be used to drastically reduce road crashes in Ogun.
He, therefore, reiterated the command’s resolve to train its personnel on properly handling the gadget.
“FRSC has already acquired the radar gun and will soon be calibrated and put into use to track speeding vehicles.
“We want to caution motorists against speeding and urge them to adhere strictly to traffic rules and regulations, as any erring driver will face the wrath of the law,” he said.
The sector commander identified speeding as one of the major factors contributing to accidents in the state.
Mr Uga said FRSC would embark on advocacy visits to churches, mosques and motor parks on the dangers of speeding.
