Tazmode:
Hmmm, a happy accident

Tazmode:
Some of them didn't pay attention at driving school or got their driver's license through the window

bigddan:
the only thing Nigeria knows how to best is Mole weed! Casper Nyovest can testify

Originalsly:
Good write up......but nothing would change without 24/7 enforcement of the rules

Richy4:
Most can't drive within the marked line.... I usually see such horrifying driving on you tube when watching Nollywood...How can one drive in middle of white line without remorse...not that they are changing lane or something...

shamecurls:
If you don't do all of the above, just learn how to swear for people and you will be good to go.

EnigmaticEnigma:
Nigeria is a zoo, we should thank the whites for even giving us car to drive, mtcheew

EnigmaticEnigma:


That is why most Nigerians are referred to as animals

Simple lane discipline, that a monkey can be trained to do by the whites, is hard for animals in the zoo.

EnigmaticEnigma:


tell dem!

tell dem again!

mtcheew, jungle nation, bunch of unserious miscreants.

can never get shhh right

look at them already joking about this on the front page, not knowing that a large percentage of accidents can be solved by ensuring enforcement of these common rules. lives could have been saved yo!!

jungle nation, spits

Richy4:


Sometimes I don't blame them...I blame the authorities that issue licenses....They just issue driving licenses to people that did not go to driving school or pass driving test...once you flash your money, the license is yours...they had zero driving rules..once anyone can reverse a car or accelerate, The person claims that he or she can drive

pelzzo:
Another Zero joy alert

Tpave:
How many Nigerian drivers actually learnt how to drive or passed through driving school.
Na from conductor to driver

I feel so sad when I see drivers @ Double parking.

Before I move my car, I must fasten my seat belt subconsciously.

I don't drive more than 10seconds without looking at mirrors

Abee79:
In other words, Nigerians are terrible drivers! Most of us drive with our emotions.
We feel like dying when another vehicle overtakes us in traffic.
Worst, Abuja women - CHAI!!!! (especially if they are driving a, SUV or a fairly new car) and they are either driving to Church or doing school runs. In your own interest, avoid them.

Commercial drivers are another nut-case! Actually, many of them are Okada riders that graduated into driving cars/buses. They still use their Okada mentality and they see nothing wrong in what they are doing

Sometimes I really wonder what the mandate of the FRSC is . . . . Who is really responsible for driver education in this Country?
Can't the FRSC spearhead driver education and training?
Why will the FRSC not have Driving Training facilities all over the country?
Is their job only to keep harassing road users (many of whom don't really know basic driving ethics) over fire extinguishers, wearing seat-belts etc . . .

thesicilian:

I didn't attend a driving school but I know all these rules and try as much as possible to follow them. At times all that is needed to be a good driver is just common sense and compassion/consideration for your fellow road users.

laudate:


You forgot to add: other motorists that 'trafficate' and immediately shunt into your lane, almost colliding with your car. They do not even bother to stop and wait, to see if the road is clear for them to change lanes or not. They seem to think that immediately they have switched on their trafficator, it gives them a license to move or change lanes within a split second! Animals!

shinarambo1:

How can you know all the rules without attending a driving school and eventually sit for an exam
I was like you some years ago. i had been driving for 15 years in nigeria. I moved to a different country with similar road rules as nigeria..i knew all the road rules as far as i was concerned.... i failed the theory test twice and driving test twice...

erico2k2:

Most Nigerians do not know what double parking means . .
Seriously it dosnt mean two vehicles parking on both sides of the road side by side

lionlamb020:
It is in Nigeria that someone will be in traffic for hours but then get to the front and can't find what caused the whole wahala in the first place.

uzoclinton:
FUN FACT

Most Nigerians put on their seat belts not because they care for their own safety, but because they are scared of been pulled over by the police aka olokpa or worst road safety.
