Illegal parking

Danfo drivers

Faulty vehicles

Gala hawkers

Narrow roads

These are the causes of unnecessary traffic in Lagos. You'll get to the front and look for what caused the traffic to no avail.


GALA HAWKERS ARE YOU REALLY IN LAGOS

1. LAGOS IS OVER POPULATED

2. THE ROAD NETWORK IS NOT WIDE ENOUGH

3. VISIT ABUJA THEN YOU WOULD UNDERSTAND WHAT AM SAYING
Sometimes I feel those Gala hawkers deliberately cause traffic to ease their sales.

Motorists plying one-way the wrong way are a menace in Lagos. Their irresponsible and thoughtless actions endangers the lives of many Lagosians daily. This drive is a very welcomed development that is long overdue in my opinion

OldSinister:


The road works are the reason for unprecedented increase in one-way driving. All the trunk roads are under serious construction e.g. Ikorodu road surface is being changed to concrete, 3MB is partially closed, Agege is being built up even while half of Abeokuta expressway is closed to citizens for reasons best known to the LASG. Lagos-Ibadan between Berger & Sagamu interchange is under major construction for about five years running now.

Some of the non-essential projects (like the concrete thing) should've been staggered for purpose of convenience but no, contracts must be quickly awarded and kickbacks eaten. There is no reason also why yellow buses shouldn't use the BRT which remains empty all day while citizens sit gridlocked and sweating in the considerably narrowed half remaining.

Nigeria's leaders are a bunch of greedy imbèciles.

Follow the rules and regulations. You will thank me later...


CONNECT 3RD MAINLAND BRIDGE THROUGH YABA ADEKUNLE AND FORFEIT YOUR CAR

This is my personal experience yesterday. The link between Yaba and the Bridge is closed for now, but you will see a LASTMA officer or a Policeman or some tout directing you to an alternative route, if you follow, you will later be arrested for ONE WAY. And the Executive Order for now is forfeiture.
I was arrested yesterday and have been in their office since yesterday. About 50 Cars have been arrested and brought to their office at Oshodi. They want to forfeit the Cars and auction them as they did last week.
I was favoured today after calling everyone I know in Lagos and to no avail, to be fined N200,000.
Please and please, avoid ONE WAY, anywhere in Lagos now. They are on Revenue Drive o. It's well.


From someone in My Alumni group

freeeeme:
Motorist plying one way is not the cause of Lagos traffic. Lagos State Govt be the reason for traffic. Why have dey not construct a parking space at Ajah. The construction is at 90% completion and it was abandoned. Every evening you spend at least 1 hour in the traffic. Hmnn, maybe traffic is even a source of revenue for the govt. Maybe!

HopeRisingmatte:
The country is already so hard and yet the Government does this? What happened to cautioning and things like that?

Excuzeme:


Have you not read about Policemen LURING Drivers into a one way System, while another set of Policemen lay ANBUSH for them further down the Road?
You are not sure whether a Road is one way and you ask a Policeman, he tells you it is not and motions you to proceed, then signals his mates down the Road to impound your Vehicle and they Auction it among themselves.
Is that 'law enforcement' or Criminality in Uniform?

I am totally against One-way drivers but it is not the job of Govt officials to deliberately lure people into committing such offense.

LAGOS MOVES AGAINST ONE-WAY DRIVING, UNLEASHES SPECIAL TASKFORCE

Please where is Lagos?

Asking for a friend in Ibadan.

chukel:
i quite disagree with some of your submissions. Nigerians are grossly indisciplined and irresponsible. If we all obey traffic rules and regulations either voluntarily or by compulsion, you will see those gridlocks disappear. They are always there cos some irresponsible citizens will just flout the regulation and obstruct free flow of traffic. Even where construction is going on, no matter how slow, traffic will move if obeyed. There should be no justificatiin for disregard of traffic. Traffic offenders should be taken for pyschiatric evaluation.

Focusmind:
My annoyance is that they hardly arrest those danfo drivers that constitutes these nuisance. They will focus more...

You don't question the severity of a law if you are law abiding.

LASGVT and their every Avenue ideology of generating resources.

It is well.

Shoodboi:


You will understand why people are complaining by they time a police or Lastma officer directs you to take a "regular" route and another set of officers in front arrest you for taking one-way.

OldSinister:


Yeah indiscipline is also the reason why half of federal roads in Lagos are sequestered for the exclusive use of a privately held commercial enterprise, and still the so-called BRT lanes remain empty because the concessionaire lacks financial heft to put buses in play while thousands of people are trapped inside traffic on the significantly narrowed lanes left over

When people are treated unfairly they know and they respond by showing you their animal character too. Nigeria is a jungle, period.
