The Lagos State Government has impounded 241 unlicensed vehicles, including one with fake dealer number plate, during a recent enforcement exercise conducted by the Vehicle Inspection Service (VIS).
In a statement issued on 30th September 2024, the Lagos State Commissioner for Transportation, Mr. Oluwaseun Osiyemi, cautioned motorists to avoid driving unregistered vehicles.
He emphasized that such practices undermine law enforcement efforts, particularly in identifying and tracking stolen vehicles or those involved in criminal activities.
Quoting Sections 15 and 16 of the Lagos State Transport Sector Reform Law (TSRL) 2018, Mr. Osiyemi reiterated that driving a vehicle without proper registration or affixed identification marks constitutes a legal offence.
He further revealed that a fake dealer number plate was discovered on one of the impounded vehicles, noting that investigations are ongoing to apprehend and prosecute those responsible for issuing the fraudulent plate.
The Commissioner urged all motorists to adhere to the state’s traffic regulations, stating that compliance would enable the government to fulfill its mission of ensuring a safe and secure environment for all road users.
