Dat's c'mon to many young drivers (private or commercial), esp if u're jst starting to drive. My colleagues & I use to av a slogan wen we started driving dat "wot's d usefulness of d space btw u & d nxt car? " meaning u keep up ur speed till u're "bumper to bumper" wt him, & wen u meet him, nxt target is to overtake.
We outgrew all dat wt time, esp after bashing d cars several times.

For d drivers, I guess part of the reason is cos they don't want d nxt cab to pick a potential passenger ahead of dem. It baffles me dat they display same attitude to private vehicles too. Really, they can be a hell of a burden wen they're ahead of u, esp on a narrow Rd.

luckily for me I haven't bashed my car or anyones yet

And you will always hear wordings like oya reverse pada seyen from the assistant pilot (conductor)...... Meaning Reverse back

Nice experience in Lagos..

SuperSuave:
I agree with your first point but not 100% with your second. Most of them usually speed up when any vehicle tries to overtake them especially on single lane roads. I don't like being overtaken whenever I'm on the wheel too, makes me feel like I'm incompetent.

If you meet person like me for road, Na you go willingly comot for road for me!

daamazing:
lollls,
1. He doesn't look at side mirror when changing lanes(wrong).. If this is true, nobody will be alive in Lagos.
2. He speeds up when someone wants to overtake him for no reason (wrong)
When no be say him don mad maybe it's Kenyan based danfo drivers Op's talking about.

Olodo... Na conductor be their side mirror

Typical everyday Nigerian. I suppose all Nigerians qualify as bus drivers

You are obviously not conversant with Lagos.

How many Nigerians trafficate before they switch lanes?
