Godson201333: The Federal Road Safety Commission in Rivers State says it will impound vehicles without the new number plates at the expiration of its October 1 deadline.

The Sector Commander, Dr. Kayode Olagunju, announced this in an interview with the News Agency of Nigeria in Port Harcourt on Thursday.

Olagunju said the enforcement would begin as scheduled if the Federal Government did not extend the deadline.

He said the use of old number plate and driving licence was partly responsible for the high rate of road traffic offences.

The sector commander added that the situation had made it difficult for road safety officials to track down offenders.

Olagunju said, “The present number plate and driving licence is meant to enhance the credibility of data and it will enhance safety of lives on the highways and assist in the area of security.

“The plate is highly reflective and which means the issue of collision (accident) at night is tackled.

“The present number plate is attached to individual rather than vehicles and which means that if I’m going to sell my vehicle now, I’m not expected to sell my vehicle with my number plate.


“When people know that when they commit traffic offences and they can be easily traced due to the number plate system, definitely, the rate of traffic offences will be on the decline.”

These FRSC guys must be ready for another protest cos I'm wondering how many cars they will impound and for me ooo, any of their officers that stops me, I pity his limbs cos where do they expect us to see this amount for people with 3,4,5 cars. I am sorry these guys are senseless and whoever has approved this must be ready for a fierce reactions from the masses. Rubbish!

FRSC should better get ready for a showdown with vehicle owners because I know many will not comply.

Guy kindly get urs @ 25k with Third Party insurance and 20k without Insurance b4 the rushing hours. Call 08023272331 and speak with a licencing officer.

I hope the FG will arm FRSC operators and provide life insurance for them cos this policy will send many of them to their early graves.

Nadoson: How can one get the plate numba @ 45k wen his car its self does not worth up to #45 if to b sold?

If I sell my inherited VW beetle (ijapa) sef the money no go reach 4 the plate number ....lolz

Another useless venture
If the agency has run out of ideas,let them shut it down

badesco:

How do u mean? Evn if it's 25k, dnt u knw dat some cars here in Nigeria dosn't worth 25k if 2 b sold?

Is dat the defence of the road safety people,this reans of theirs to ♍ƺ sound very inadequate.
Meamwhile the new plate number hs no serious difference from the once on most vehicles now its just a case of a dum ĄЙd̶̲̥̅̊ confused government
By the way I thought the house of Reps told those majamaja people to stop the rubbish they claim they where generation revenue for gofment!!
