In terms of adherence to highway code... Yes, Lagos.. the fear of LASTMA is the beginning of wisdom... but Lagos interior, those Danfo, Keke and Motorcycle drivers are goats


Ibadan with Crazy Micra drivers and motorcycle riders will be one of the worst have seen

InyinyaAgbaOku:


Are there no fewer cars in Ibadan than Lagos?
How come they drive like mad people there?

InyinyaAgbaOku:


It's not true. Enugu was well planned, with many intersections to divert traffic.
Armed with side walks, street lights, traffic lights and road signs.
Populated with civilized people .
How come others cities with less population than Enugu didn't make the list?

Excellent point. I think this is the key. Driving the entire length Ogui Rd, from Zoo roundabout to Holy Ghost, there are countless divergent roads that are also well tarred for you to exit Ogui Rd if busy and reconnect at a later point.
In Lagos, If you hit Ikorodu rd en route V.I. you are practically imprisoned on that road. there is no escape route, coupled with zillions of cars.

Which City in Nigeria has the best driving culture? Judged by respect for other road users, yield, adherence to Highway Code, etc. In my opinion, Lagos is the best. If you move vehicles from only Ozumba Mbadiwe to Warri, Benin City or Port Harcourt, you will shut down any of the cities. Warri motorists drive like they are possessed and show no qualms driving against the traffic. Benin City drivers have no respect for traffic lights.

InyinyaAgbaOku:


Bakynes, adopt this comment.

Plus, you haven't explained why Ibadan is not better than driving in Lagos if we go by population.
Forget it, there are sane and insane cities.
I guess London doesn't have better driving than Lagos and Ibadan cos it's populated.

MosesIgb:
Can't say about the best, but would talk about the worst. Port Harcourt, Benin, Lagos, Ibadan and Maiduguri would top my list of worst drivers.
PH- Drivers are reckless, love driving against traffic and park recklessly even in the middle of the road to pick passengers. Would say PH drivers are mad.
Benin- They don't obey traffic light. They are wicked drivers (when they can't pass they won't allow others to pass) and that's one of the major cause of traffic jam in Benin.
Lagos- Their Danfo drivers can bruise your car and they won't care.
Ibadan- The Micra drivers are so reckless like those Keke riders in lagos.
Maiduguri- They are killer drivers, they drive with extreme speed even within neighbourhood streets like they are Bullion van drivers.
Note the traffic issue we face in Lagos is due to the high number of cars, with the number of drivers in Lagos if they drive like that of Benin or PH, nobody would move for days.

Afam4eva:
Did someone just mention Lagos as having good driving culture? The craziest drivers are in Lagos.

kITATITA:

Afam, I drive regularly in Lagos. I marvel at the sheer size of commuters and vehicles on Lagos roads at any given time. A typical Lagos driver is less likely to make phone calls while driving, less likely to drive against the traffic and less likely to beat traffic lights compared to most cities in the country. The Lagos driver is more civilized than his counterparts in Benin City, Warri, Port Harcourt or Onitsha.

I was almost knocked down in Benin when I attempted crossing a supposedly one way road.

Most drivers have no regard for pedestrians especially along Aduwawa/Eyaen axis.

Top on my list will be Uyo,driving around the city is something I find pleasurable with sane road users.

hollywater:
The Op is high on ewedu.Lagos ko lagos ni.The wworse city to drive cat , is Lagos.Ibadan is far ahead of Lahod when talk of good driving.
