The Federal Road Safety Corps (FRSC), Lagos Sector Command, has confirmed a serious road traffic crash that occurred on Boxing Day in Lagos.
The crash involved two vehicles, a Lexus saloon car and a TVS Bajaj motorcycle.
A total of five adult males were involved in the incident, with three persons sustaining injuries, while no fatality was recorded.
According to the Sector Public Education Officer, SRC Oluwadamilola Jayeola, preliminary investigations revealed that the crash was caused by one-way driving, which constitutes a clear violation of traffic regulations.
FRSC operatives responded promptly to the scene, rescued the injured victims, and conveyed them to the New Nigerian Hospital for medical attention.
The vehicles involved were subsequently towed to the FRSC base for further action.
The Lagos Sector Commander, Corps Commander Kehinde G. Hamzat, has appealed to all road users to strictly comply with traffic regulations, avoid risky driving behaviours, and prioritise safety at all times, especially during the festive period.
