As a professional driver, what would you do if this was the only way to your destination?

Me: I will reverse asap, go and look for a hotel nearby to pass the night. Life is so precious, what if they pop out from the bush with Ak-47 riffles. A lot can go wrong. The only option for me is to reverse and never look back. Eni ori yo odi le, Ire ooo

A few years back, I encountered this situation, and fortunately, our driver skillfully reversed quickly to escape, even though the side mirror was hit in the process. Thank God for a swift getaway.

First exclamation I made was "Hey". But I quickly remembered 'fast and furious'.

Omo na reverse and swerve hoping no close cars around.

But if you continue, your tyres would be punctured and you would be forced to stop thereafter.

Then you will be completely finished

Exactly what they expect you to do, so that you will drive to the one that is perfectly nailed ahead, where you can't easily make it on reverse.

Re: As A Driver If You Find Yourself In This Situation What Will You Do? by Mcreloaded(m): 5:47pm On Aug 03, 2023
That's why I pump my tyres with chemicals that seals holes immediately.
Those that drive at night are advised to pump chemicals that seals holes instantly.
It works instantly like kilode

Most of them are not drivers. No sensible Nigerian driver would reverse or come down from the vehicle. I have driven several kilometres on only wheels before.

They have already position themselves at the back and in front after that nailplank. Only option is to see if you can bypass through the bush and speed off hoping you would not get hit by bullet. I am talking from experience. If you are a frequent night bus Traveller you will understand what bus drivers overcome alot at night.

If you're on top speed, pull up your emergency break and see your car turn around immediately. If you're not on top speed, just turn around and avoid problems. I'm sure a vaginarian is among the armed robbers which is why they are this wicked, normal armed male robbers don't go this extreme.

Reverse? So people wey carry this kind thing for front no go dey back to open fire on you if you try reverse....


It's evident you've never being a victim of this folks. Bro from experience, the best you can do is go heavy on the gas pedal and loose all tyres even rims till you can reach safety. Even braking is not an option.

If you are convinced it's a robbery or kidnap setup ...

Two things ..

With the arrangement, you can speedily go round it to save at least two to three tyres ...

Other option, turn off all the lights outside and inside the vehicle , and remain inside .... Why? Unless they are dare devil well armed criminals... They would think twice before they approach your vehicle... Within that time you can reason what to do ...



Reversing means you are going to meet them
