The speed limiter will work perfectly if the orientation of Nigerian drivers is reinforced. Many of the commercial vehicle drivers are always under the influence of alcohol and drugs, so, even with speed limiter safety is still very low. I propose a system whereby at every certain kilometers on our highway, there will be road safety officials with gadgets for alcohol detection, sleep detection and strict check on tyres of the vehicles. Most accident are caused greatly by these aforementioned factors, therefore, if government can make the Driver's license point deductible, any driver who violate safety rules will have points deducted from his Driver's license until he/she is banned from Driving, and if found to be driving after the ban, the culprit is then jailed without an option of fine because he/she may put people's lives at risk. This is my submission. 4 Likes |

This is arrant nonsense! So we will be spending the scarce dollars on this shit, speed limiting my foot! we should rather spend these money on fixing the roads and providing infrastructure! Can you imagine the pressure this will have on the dollars for all cars on our road to have this useless device! 1 Like |

KingRex1: what if they have overspeed trackers installed in various locations, don't you think i could have made more sense that this nonsense? What if i saw the signal and decided to ignore it? Is there any vehicle that does not have a speed limit? Even judging by the prizes in this recession. Believe me this present government is actually confused. Quote me anywhere. 1 Like |

Our roads are not car worthy yet the government collects road worthiness tax. Our roads are unsafe yet they want to reduce our speed. Have you ever been chased by arm robbers or kidnappers? Do they think all Nigerians have access to police security? How many elites will put speed limiters? How many elites even did the tinted vehicle permits? The poor are being exploited. 1 Like |

this speed limiting device is a failure on arrival, firstly the roads are bad 2, you can't say becos of vandals speed cameras won't work, what happened to Solar power? 3: how many commercial vehicles actually have working speedometers in Nigeria? 4. 2 million jobs can't even be created by a new Telecoms company entering Nigeria. 1 Like |

When we were younger, armed robbers actually chased after my mums car and by Gods grace, the driver was able to speed away very quickly. So if they had speed limiters installed, what would have happened  These Nigerian officials are looking for nothing else but extortion! So much for the war against corruption. So they stop you and start asking for: -license -Registration -insurance -road worthiness (all fine by me, but wait, there more) -C caution -Fire Extinguisher -and now, speed limiter  who are we really kidding here Isn't it better like it's done in the U.S, were police have speed guns and actually enforce speed limits I guess the Nigerian police or road safety force are too damn lazy to approach enforcement with any kind of zeal, beyond setting up shady roadblocks. ediotss!!!!!! I will never get any kind of speed limiter as that will do more harm than good in my opinion. I bet that within the next 5 years, some other policy will come up requiring new license plates and drivers licenses. Confused ediots  1 Like |

sped1oro: Even though I know that most of the accidents are caused by over speeding, I am mad at the FG. They leave the most important of building good roads and maintaining it to push the responsibility of road safety to the average Nigerians. The REAL truth is that some people high at the top are hedging for the 5 -20% commission they will receive from the importation of the speed limiter. A basic speed limiter can be as cheap as N5000 but they went for an advanced one that costs a minimum of N35,000. The top brass of the FRSC are only interested in their cut from over N450 billion Naira to be used in importing the speed limiter, they don't care a bit about the average Nigerian. 1 Like |

I actually wanted to know how speedlimit saves live exactly? Lets look at it this way. If i sees the the red signal and decided to ignore it and keep on moving what happens? Does it mean that i might be running overspeed without know? Lastly is there any vehicle that does not have speedlimit at default? The whole things still boiled down to drivers and how careful they were. This could be another avenue form this people to make more money for themselves. If you actually wanted to save lives and stop overspeeding, why don't you installed an overspeed tracker like traffic light into various places, which will be able to track any offenders, that would have make more sense than this nonsense. Moreover judging by the costs in this recession, we will not take it. 1 Like |

If we have good roads and security is guarantied on our roads, i will not object to this speed limiter stuff. Even if i support the speed limiter installed in our vehicles for safety reasons at least to cut down the level of accidents on our roads, they will still use it to extort money from the already extorted Nigerians. The process has not even been fully implemented, it has already been monopolized. Selfish policies that will enrich a few and enslave a whole lot. 1 Like |

Exactly what this is meant to solve. Why do we have to see lives lost before we embrace change? By the way, implementation of SLD is not new, it has always been in our laws, its just that government is just waking up to say no to avoidable carnage and attendant loss of lives on our roads.

Anyone that think these clan of criminals have any plan in limiting any speed needs to get his head checked because all the want is to hand you some cheap toy from China that wouldn't work and collect your 40 thousand naira to flex..any govt serious about accidents will first fix the roads and the set up speed cameras and traps that would fine drivers and time they exceed speed limits in areas that have limits 1 Like |

Hope1: Some of us don't drive above 100km/hr as a rule. Must we also cough out the money which isn't available anyway because some FRSC officers are planing for their retirement benefit and an opportunity to have a duplex in Asokoro and Maitama. on the surface, it looks like a good idea BUT it is FRAUD After the speed limiters, the FRSC will find something else to fleece the hard working simple Nigerians. 1 Like |
