Break Any Of These Traffic Laws In Nigeria, See The Fines You Will Pay – FRSC by AutoJoshNG: 1:12pm On Apr 18, 2019 |
Ignorance, in Law, is not an excuse. Any motorist that violates any of the road traffic laws is expected to pay the penalties. On federal roads in Nigeria, there are specific amounts that are paid as fines for the different traffic offences. These fines and penalties are administered by the Federal Road Safety Corps (FRSC). The FRSC is the agency established with a mandate to reduce vehicular accidents on federal roads, educate motorists and pedestrians on traffic laws, clear any form of vehicular obstructions, etc. The authority of the FRSC is restricted only to Federal roads and highways. That is, inter-state roads or federal government-built bridges or flyovers. The FRSC has no statutory mandate, or authority, to operate or carry out its functions on State government constructed roads. Now, here are 38 traffic offences and the fines issued to offenders. 1. DANGEROUS DRIVING Penalty: 50,000 2. VEHICLE LICENCE VIOLATION Penalty: 3,000 3. USE OF PHONE WHILE DRIVING Penalty: 4,000 4. EXCESSIVE SMOKE EMISSION Penalty: 5,000 5.

I was once flagged down by these folks...after checking everything in the vehicle to be OK, they said the blue marking on my plate number was faded/illegible. They threatened to impound my car....they finally asked me to apply for a new number plate. |

Larryfest: You are right. Road Marshals will be looking like give us the money, why bother going to pay it in a bank - Our Ogas will eat the money. Beating traffic light is just #2K. But if Police catch You, they will threaten You and even extort more than #2K. |

AutoJoshNG: Firstly, is the road safety an income generating agency? I thought the idea was to make our roads safe- well, as usual misplacement of establishment priorities, they should change the name to road safety service and not commission if they want to continue along this trajectory - if they implement all theses fines, all the commercial vehicles, buses taxi's, Keke, and motor cycles would all be off the road |
