Autojosh can’t say what would have happened if officials of Lagos State Traffic Management Authority (LASTMA) had spotted the Rolls-Royce driving against traffic, but Lagos State’s task force would have impounded it.

Remember that vehicles impounded by the Lagos State’s task force for flouting traffic rules and regulations, especially those driving against the flow of traffic, are auctioned off to the public.

Speaking during a public auction of impounded vehicles last year, the Chairman of the agency, CSP Shola Jejeloye, said driving against traffic will not only disrupt the free flow of traffic but also endangers the lives and property of other road users in the State.

He said :

“From our records, 80% of hit-and-run victims on Lagos roads were knocked down by motorists who drove against traffic, especially in the early hours of the day”.
