Do you know how to drive? Had it been that it was within safety speed limit the driver would have controlled the vehicle
I started driving before you were born...

My previous car was an suv an i had 3 occupants. Bu the time we hit lag ibadan express,naso i press turtle reach 140kph ,a 2.4 liter engine. The speedometer stops at 180kph. Naso them dy shout say na jeep,say make i drop speed go 100kph,a fwd car. I had no choice than to do so cos centr of gravity na dodo for suv. But with my back axle that year,oh my gawd.come and se me doing 190,abd speedometer ends at 280kph.me sef dey fear everywhere grip.

When the windows are closed and the A/C system is turned on, passengers do not feel like the vehicle is speeding. Only the driver will be aware that he is speeding, especially when guys are inside the vehicle. They will not know, sir. Except when the guys check the speedometer, in which case the men are unfamiliar with Nigerian reckless driving habits. They are foreigners who are unfamiliar with Nigeria, so they trust the driver to be professional. I am sure they paid a company to provide them the driver. Or can be a family member of AJ's friend.

The best way to proceed is to determine how the driver is contracted to drive them. If he is a family member, he may be prosecuted alone; however, if the service is paid for, both the driver and the company should be prosecuted.

ONLY A FOOL WILL BELIEVE THE REPORT OF THE ROAD SAFETY WHO OBVIOUSLY HAS BEEN BRIBED THAT THE CRASH WAS CAUSED BY A BURST TYRE

THAT JEEP WAS HEAVILY FORTIFIED AS IN IT WAS FULLY ARMORED AS IN BULLET PROOF

ANYBODY WITH COMMON SENSE KNOWS THAT THE FIRST AND EASIEST AND CHEAPEST THING TO BULLETPROOF IN A VEHICLE IS THE TYRES SO THAT IF IT IS SHOT BY BULLET IT WILL NEVER BLOW OUT OR RUN FLAT

THAT IS WHY YOU WILL NEVER HEAR ANYWHERE THAT AN AMMOURED VEHICLE'S TYRE BURST AND MADE THE VEHICLE TO SUMMERSAULT OR LOOSE CONTROL THAT IT WILL GO CRASH INTO OTHER VEHICLES

SO LET IT MAKE SENSE HOW A FULLY BULLETPROOF "JEEP" TYRE THAT IS MEANT TO RUN FLAT IF IT BLOWS WILL BURST AND MAKE THE JEEP UNSTEERABLE

ANTHONY JOSHUA IS ALIVE TODAY NOT BY ANY MIRACLE FROM GOD BUT FOR THE FACT THAT THAT JEEP WAS FULLY ARMOURED CAUSE IF IT WAS JUST A REGULAR JEEP NA REST IN PEACE WE FOR DEY SAY TO RAM NOW
The police already goofed and said it was a tyre bursts out. Lol

They now want to change gear to the drivers recklessness.

The truth is only Joshua call tell us the truth about what happened.

Nigeria police like to oppress the poor and average Nigerian.
..they just want to interrogate him and ask him what actually caused the accident...they will not presecute or jail him

What's there to investigate again? Isn't it obvious that he was over speeding? It wasn't bad road, it wasn't another vehicle that hit them, it wasn't a collision from another vehicle in the opposing traffic or sideways. A truck parked on the road was the wedge against them running into the bush or killing innocent bystanders or commuters. What's there to investigate. NPF and in fact Nigeria, will always want to make a mountain out of nothing. The police will stand, and in their presence, two boys will fight over a satchet of Alomo Bitters and one breaks the other head. The reason is glaring for all to see but Nigerian police will tell you they are investigating the cause of the fight.

Isn't it obvious that it was over speeding? Shey it was them that told us it was over speeding.

For the head of the sina guy to be totally smashed and the bulky SUV smashed like that. , the speed has to be like 120 Upwards.

Eye service. How many times have the police ever investigated any crash involving ordinary Nigerians?

Sobubwan dey arrest owners of trucks over crimes commited by drivers
The person who enployed them is the only person who has their contact data and whoever stood at surety/shortee/referee for the driver.

How did the driver manage to survive in such a fatal accident? From the picture I saw online, the rear of the car was damaged beyond repair and for the driver to be alive is a great miracle.
It's same reason Antony Joshua survived. The side that hit the stationary truck was the passenger's side.
Re: Police Detain Anthony Joshua’s Driver Over Fatal Crash That Claimed Two Lives by kaludestiny10(m): 8:02am On Jan 02
Oh, that is why it's always advisable to sit on the path of drivers because of anything wants to happen, they always use the passenger side to protect themselves.

DrAda, Cough, cough.
Check the comments from like minded individuals. It's one thing to blame an individual for driving recklessly, whilst ignoring your active role in the same accident

There’s really no need for this theatrical publicity stunt by the NPF. AJ and his fellow travellers are not toddlers on a school excursion. If the driver was overspeeding, it was entirely within their rights to rein him in.

The police would do well to focus on matters that actually demand their attention, rather than manufacturing tension where none exists and mistaking calm situations for crime scenes. A little less showmanship, a little more sense.
Your either speeding or not. There's nothing like overspeeding.

Have they bothered to arrest the trailer driver and the owner who parked that vehicle there? Nigeria keeps chasing shadows. This idea of leaving broken down vehicles on the side/shoulders of highways, should be discouraged. It should be an offense to leave a broken down vehicles on our roads, they should be removed immediately. Road Safety Corps always leave their primary duty and instead they concern themselves with things that has nothing to ensure actual road safety.

Yeah, as you are an experienced driver you knows more than FRSC.
All these kids that started driving few months ago will claim experienced.
Even the FRSC confirmed that the accident was due to over speeding and reckless overtaking it was Nigeria police with their usual lies to cover up what I don't know that came up with the theory of a burst tyre

The driver of the trailer has little blame in this matter.

It was the driver of the SUV who was driving like a mad man c9s he thought he was in a Fast and Furious movie that caused the whole thing and took two innocent lives angry

You can say that again,but I don't think AJ meant that... He's so fortunate.

You are right. The truth is that it's not yet his time to exit this world.
