Which of the 2 can you dare in the UK n USA we all admire ? Pls no de glorify your foolishness where I de. The forfeiture stand as passed by the Lagos state assembly. You wailing to death won't change it. Don't drive against traffic or on one way in Lagos. When you get to your state you can drive like lunatics all you like. E no concern nobody.

Lifted1:

Educate yourself.
there is a difference between driving against uncoming traffic on the opposite lane; and taking a one way street ( especially one without a one way sign).
The draconian forfeiture law is intended for the former

You have no point. Zero point. You are only a crime apologist finding a way to justify lawlessness. The law is only created for would-be offenders and from ur rubbish u typed u only proved you are a would-be offenders in the future.

Is it only me that heard "You go loose your JOB"

Or did i hear JOB or Car

Seem as if they just entered Lagos.

Nevertheless, the forfeiture punishment is still too severe

No matter what the reason is, Forfeiture of your Vehicle is wrong.

Banning the person from driving for a time would have been more Logical.

IMO It is Heartless and Wicked to ask someone to forfeit his or her Vehicle due to a traffic offence and more so, sell it.

Corruption itself gradually creeping into our Laws.

I wish I can take the government to Court on that.

To you guys quoting me and giving reasons why the Cars should, I refuse to respond to you because its obvious you don't sound reasonable but rather bitter envious, wicked and hateful and without empathy.

All I sense is that you are not different from the wicked ones who lobbied for that that inhumane law.

Sooner or later, I hope life teaches your naive and myopic minds that "Cutting the head off doesn't cure Headache".

You saying i am trying to justify lawlessness shows you either did not think before replying or your emotional sense controls you rather then logical sense which makes you someone difficult to reason with.

you guys keep talking about in america he would be shot. OK granted he may be shot, not all american police officers shoot people. the ones who shoot people are the ones who make the TV but kkeep in mind that for every one police officer capable of killing you in america there are a thousand who do their jobs pprofessionally. so a country with about 1 million police officers and we only get a case of police shooting like once a week ? you get me ? so the USA is sane

now this guy however ? the RRS officer did not shoot him but what he would face behind the scenes ? he would be better off if they had shot him. like 10 officer will beat him with planks, and they will remove almost all his teeth, and on top of that ? they will not give him the option to buy back his car because he assaulted an officer. its straight to auction straight and the proceeds put in LASG coffers. so he may end up being disabled from all the beating and then he has no car. maybe someone will take pity on him and buy him a disabled wheelchair cheesy

cheesy He would have been shot by the American police. Their training and right extends to defending themselves in danger. They have killed for far less.

You wouldn't hear this happening often because it's become a culture to teach even teenagers how to interact with the police, especially in communities with people of color. Even those guys will know better than to misbehave in that fashion.

Let's even assume he could have gone free by assaulting the officer. Returning to his car would have had him shut dead because with his level of hyperactivity, he could be reaching for a weapon or a gun. Again, the American police would defend themselves. It takes being alive to defend your nation.

The fit beat the guy like idiot for station o. I no dey dispute that one. BTW, you only see the ones that go viral in the US. Many other killings aren't as loud.

Driving against traffic issa norm thing in Lagos. Anyone who doubt me come to Victoria Island or Ajah na.
The only reason why they arrested him was because he assaulted officer of the law.

We in Lagos know how it goes.

some foolish people here talking dont even know what transpired even by watching the video. until you hear the account of all partirs involved dont judge. because some people come to an area for the first time and dont know its one way traffic plus there is no signs to show them so, even if there are sometimes its always very small and almost impossible to see. i am saying this from experience. on two occassions i have been accousted by police and taskforce. one of which was i did not know it was one way and i have not even entered my vehicle was just at the entrance of the street. the second time was that the road i knew very well was a double way street became one way and i had no single clue this has changed and the sign was very amidst obstructions making it impossible to see, na so these people jump on me.

Totally understand this, and this should be an ongoing discussion as I have been a victim too, however in the context of this video it was all shades wrong to assault a police officer

Unfortunately, we don't know the full story here.
I don't trust police guys when it comes to recording. They may have started recording from the part where it favours the police guys story, and ignored the things the police guys did that triggered that response. And then released that part of the video alone to skew public opinion in their favour.

For example- if a policeman shoots someone or some people senselessly like they do sometimes, and is being beaten by the crowd, and someone starts videoing the situation only from where they are beating the policeman, you would be inclined to side with the policeman just from seeing that part of the video.

Though I'm not holding brief for the guy o.
The guy's action is unacceptable and should not be tolerated on any count, however, something must have likely happened to get them enraged to that extent.
It is not just a regular case of "you pass one way and were stopped by police".
I can hear the guys shouting "you wan kill us", "you've damaged my car", "we've been here since yesterday", etc....so it's obvious something happened that triggered that extent of rage from the 2 boys.

I will like to hear the full story and the guys side of the story before passing judgement.
Cos I don't trust police and their recordings, they can easily manipulate things to suit their narrative and get public sympathy.
You heard the full story. Why pretending?

Originalsly:


That's like entrapment. In cases like this.... it is done on purpose. People need to like call up a TV station.... they're always looking for news.... let them know the area and the problem.... they will broadcast it and seek interview with the authorities. The person in charge will feel pressured to do something because he doesn't know who else above him watched the news and will be waiting to see if he will take action. If he doesn't his job may be in jeopardy and that he wouldn't want happen. The TV media is a veryyyy effective tool because it can put a spotlight on problems for all to see. Should you make a One Way sign... and place it at the beginning of the road where it should be... I can bet my life it will be pulled down ... by RRS .... and they will launch an investigation to find out who was responsible. Let's not go into the chargess that will follow.

Great suggestion

My brother you are so right, how can they just take someone's car and sell it because they break traffic law, this is so stupid and unheard of, this government are just crazy, yes they should be punished for breaking the traffic laws, either few weeks jail time, or payment of fine, but nit saying they forfeit a vehicle of millions, come on, how does it even make sense, this is very bad, smh, but then again, when have the government ever made a law that ever favor the people (never) smh

The policemen really deserve a raise or some accolades, that is how a police officer should act, with all the power they have and could have easily shot the guy because he attacked them first, they didn't and they maintained their composure. They are a good example of hoe the police force should be, not the ones way be say if u just even talk back at them, them go don dey shoot. Smh.. The driver guys sef are stupid o, you in the wrong and still fighting untop your wrong, smh. Somehow they deserve any punishment, smh
