This law merely concedes that trailers in general constitute a hazard. But the real solution is to impound every single one that is not in good shape.

This is a good move but i am not sure it will make much of a difference, most of the majors road in Lagos are "federal government" roads and the state governemnet cannot impose any law on such roads except lagos state roads, western avenue, ikorodu road, 3rd mainland bridge and the lagos apapa expressway are all federal government roads

Even though we know that this trailers and their psychotic drivers are some of the major causes of accidents on our roads, there will be serious economic effects if this plan is implemented and it can even have a reverse effect to what was originally lntended.

Although we might easily presume that this new directive is the perfect solution to magically end the road traffic accidents.
It is so far from it and rather unfair. Folks in construction would be terribly hampered by this development, why because heavy duty trucks are relied upon for delivery of equipment and material resources and critically even when on time-bound deliveries.
Traders and people in supply chain will cut losses as they won't be readily competitive in deliveries and so many instances.
An ideal solution especially to menace of falling containers would be to proactively enforce safety buckling and latching of said containers properly to the flat bed carrier trucks especially from the wharf, this would go a long way to imbibe this culture in drivers for other transitioning.
Again, the road safety and Vehicle inspection service should simply be doing their statutory roles rather than targeting naive unsuspecting drivers for extortion.
The recent container mishap should have been sighted and apprehended for inadequate safety checklists by these officers had they been doing their job before such unfortunate incidence.
The 6 - 9 directive will only easy traffic situations for office and school commuters and that I guess is not the real solution to these spate of accidents.

Perhaps, we should follow the Benin Republique ban on Heavy Lorries on the road between 6 to 9 and between 17h to 20h.

LAWMA trucks are excluded due to the job they do.....
