Once their departure time reaches, they will zoom off irrespective of the number of the passengers and if their AC is faulty, they will balance you like #300 or above depending on how much you paid. The only Tranport company in Nigeria that white men uses and I have travelled with some from Lagos to PH.

the day I had to travel from ibadan to Jos the company had to take both nassarawa and Abuja bound travellers to

But ABC dont do such....I've once gone to Jos with just 4 passengers twice

Be blessed. I no dey know why person go hussle for front seat only to sleep off before the bus hit the road. And he would snoring and rotating his head like a ceiling fan. That alone is enough to cause the driver to sleep of too. You no say sleep dey dey transferable.

incase you don't know what speed limit is, when u install speed limit on a vehicle, the vehicle won't run above the programmed speed. So stop giving false accusations. They don't run more than 110km

Every long distance driver must insist that only a vigilant passenger who can converse with him time to time sits in front and drivers should also learn to stop, stretch their legs for a few minutes before continuing to avoid sleeping on wheels.

That's just it. Though some drivers prefer someone who would not caution them in the front. If I sit there I try to pally the driver through little talks. On one of such long trips, a driver told me he was feeling sleepy. I had to make sure we were talking. He put Robb on his eyes, no way. He had to take the cover of my bottle of water to chew while the small talks continued till we arrived our destination.

Good is good changed the face of travelling on such long journeys by big transport companies. Their safety standard is unrivalled by any transport company in Nigeria. You may check FRSC for verification. They have patrols on all their routes to ensure safety of passengers, drivers and buses. Other transport companies have started to emulate. You have the right to report the drivers or captains (as they are called) during your journey. You are guaranteed instant reply. You cannot compare GIGM with Peace mass transit as there no basis. Most of the drivers in the employment of Akwa Ibom transport company were taken from GIGM. You can also check that fact. Thanks to God no live was lost. I travel GIGM more than 20 times yearly. We now have a new word in Nigeria called INCONCLUSIVE. So I submit that the driver had inconclusive sleep the previous night!

there was one ABC transport accident that happened on the auchi -okene expressway. The bus was burnt beyond recorgnition with a huge number of casualty. It collided with a fuel truck. If u see the way those ABC drivers drive recklessly ..its like they always high on codiene b4 they embark on their journey.

u dont need to travel everyday for u to see the violent accidents around u. ABC drivers are known to be rough on the roads. Maybe the havent gone the same notorious level as the defunct Ekene dilli chuckwu in the 80s but they sure going dat lane. Luxurious buses and well dressed drivers quite alright but plying the roads like dangote drivers high on codiene.

ABC drivers are one of the most disciplined drivers I know of. They never over speed.

that's a very fat lie bruh
bros ABC transport anytime dem dey pass here they are always on top speed when they are passing a road that is not express. Its like they always want to use the large size of their buses to intimidate other smaller car users off the road. The accident involving ABC transport in auchi-okene road was very violent. The tanker had an head to head collision with it.it was coming from abuja enroute to benin-lagos from looking at its position. We just saw the smoldring remains the next day with FRSCN packaging the casaulties from it. GIGM so far has not had such a violent car accident but then it also plies long distance like ABC. Also note dat a number of GIGM drivers are literate. Dem no dey use agbero as their drivers cos the company is run by two graduates.

Seriously,we should all take precaution and our safety seriously,

All travelers during this ember months, try to chose someone who is very alert and can start an argument to seat on the front seat, that way the Driver can talk and talk till you get to your destination



Do you sincerely think that this measure will prevent an accident from happening?


Will the passenger who is always on the alert help a driver who had just 2 or maybe 3 hours sleep the previous night before the journey, prevent an accident? Can a man truly cheat nature?

Again, will this our every attentive passenger prevent an accident from occuring if the car given to the driver has faulty breaks?

Yet again, what happens if the Driver is frustrated with life? Maybe he's been owed for months and his wife is sick, children are out of school. He has asked his employer for a raise or a loan but his request got denied or is kept pending till he returns from the journey. Will our every attentive passenger understand the emotional trauma the driver is facing with his hands on the wheels?


Can our attentive passenger prevent the Driver from sipping his spirits and concoction believing that it is what he needs to keep his eyes shinning throughout the journey?

Well said, that's why I like sitting at the front even if it's 24 hours journey I won't blink my eyes
Re: God Is Good Bus Crashes After Driver Allegedly Slept Off On Steering by Gerrard59(m): 9:31pm On Sep 24, 2018
It's surprising how most of the posters suggest that there should be selective process for the passenger in the driver's cabin. There is no study to prove that having one reduces the effects of sleeping on the driver neither is there any supporting the claim that if there is someone vigilant, the driver will not sleep. Correlation doesn't equal causation.

Additionally, it'd be difficult to unilaterally choose someone for the front seat when there's online booking. Anyone irrespective of their sleep alert system can choose the seat and no one, absolutely, can do anything about it.

GIGM should simply stop overworking their drivers. Even pilots don't fly back to back yet they are two in a cabin. Gisting with a driver when driving is even wrong.
