Which is why their economy moves forward brother.
Imagine telling LASTMA or Roadsafety to study traffic grid or form algorithms for softwares that would provide alternative routse for road users!

I have no idea what they are talking about

HardMirror:

Everyone that drives would agree with this study. It is much easy to join a traffic going right than turning left. And I agree that left turns are likely to cause more accidents than right turn.
Left turns also require you taking time to study both the traffic moving right and going left, while right turns only require you studying the traffic moving right.
Nice one from UPS, that is efficiency and intelligent work practice.

Myth Busters did an episode on this and the myth was proven as "Confirmed".

Ogbeche77:
Only those who drive or have driven in a first world country ll understand what this research or article is all about.. Turning left is a time waster

Don't mind him. It's obvious he's never taken a driving lesson, even an informal one. It's basic driving knowledge. No wonder we have accidents all the time.

What I suspect maybe the reason for the statistic (High accident rate for left hand turn than right hand turn) is due to the fact that in right hand drive countries like NIGERIA and US, one rule that seems to be constantly ignored or over looked is this:

GIVE WAY TO TRAFFIC ON THE LEFT.

Ignorance of this rule can account major cause of road mishaps.

For instance when negotiating a right hand turn to join a major freeway, you need to cross in front of oncoming traffic and join the flow of vehicles moving right, but what happens is that when your about joining the main traffic, the coming cars are supposed to "give way" to allow you enter and join the flow. Remember that in right hand drives you sit on the left as such your right rear view is limited and if your not careful enough you'll end up getting side swiped by an impatient and ignorant driver.

Unlike the right hand turn where you can easily judge the speed and closeness of incoming traffic on your left and you are seated on the left side of the car.

In your case man, you should avoid right turns and only make left turns! Nigeria drives on the left, so having to make right turns, increases the idling time...well clumsy if you think of it, just driving straight on Rumuola road sef kills fuel...Mad holdup.
