19 vehicles have been impounded by Officials of the Lagos State Traffic Management Authority (LASTMA) in the Apongbon area of the state for flouting traffic regulations.
Lifestyle Nigeria reports that Bolaji Oreagba, General Manager, LASTMA, said a study showed that traffic experienced in that area is caused by drivers who do not obey the state traffic laws and regulations.
He said that the Core Operations Commands (COC) from LASTMA Headquarters at Oshodi are coordinating an ongoing enforcement exercise to cover major identified spots.
“I must implore law-abiding citizens of Lagos State, especially motorists, to adhere strictly to the traffic law of the state in order not to run foul of the law which has consequences. We must all have a positive attitude towards obeying the law of the State which was made to ensure orderliness and fast-paced socio-economic improvement of individuals, corporate entities and generality of the people,” Oreagba said.
