2. Florida

6. France

And breathalyser kits are disposable, meaning they can only be use once and you throw them away. You’ll to keep a carton with you just so you have one til the next police stop.

In Nigeria, traffic law enforcement is the best since 7 agencies are found on the highway.

1. You will meet the military before you enter or exit most cities, they will check your boot, underneath and inside the car then ask you random questions. They may ask you 'oga, anything for your boy?

2. You will meet FRSC 50 metres after, they will ask to see your drivers license, then your insurance, road worthiness certificate, proof of ownership, vehicle license, reflective triangle, fire extinguisher, spare tire, tires, parking lights, brake lights, head lights, rear view mirrors. There is a very long list of fines that they will certainly fine you for one. You may negotiate a percentage settlement but beware, they they may charge you a fine for bribery attempt.

3. The police, police bomb squad or Anti robbery squad are 3 types of police you will meet. You may meet all 3 at 100m intervals of each other. They will check your DL, VL, road worthiness cert, proof of ownership and cross reference the vehicle's VIN no and engine no to the documents. Be sure to provide some change for tip. These people dont understand 'abeg laguage' na 'roger laguage' them know. So before you start your trip off, make sure you plan for roger..

4. Highway patrol police which are a little further and will do as in 3. These ones are just looking for an excuse to demand roger.

5. You will meet NDLEA who will search your car for hard and fake drugs. This affects mostly commercial cars, trucks and buses.

6. You will meet the VIO which will repeat item 2 without the spare tire, tire, fire extiguisher. Beware of these men as they will try to convince you all your papers are fake. They will encourage you to buy from them there and then without the option of fine. They will certainly give you the same fakes that the caught you for. Their sister officials in others states will tell you the same story over again.

7. The most notorious if you drive a truck or company vehicle. I dont know what they are officially called but i know they have to do with the local governments and tax. Depending on the state and depending on who you are, they could break your windscreen and still fine you up to 100k for a trash bucket, sticker and some papers i really dont know what for. They will almost certainly impound your car. They are sometimes illiterates so cannot differenciate a government MDA to a private company. If your car is company branded, beware! Once i saw them stop an NIPP car and another time a WHO, World bank and red cross cars.

Finally, for those who are taxi drivers, the fear of NURTW is the begining of wisdom, na there real agbero dey.
