Reps urge arrest, prosecution of traffic violators in Abuja

The House of Representatives (Reps) has called for the arrest and prosecution of persons who run against traffic light signals and violate other road traffic

The House also urged the Federal Capital Territory Administration to deploy technology that will track and arrest violators of traffic rules and regulations in the FCT.

The House was concerned that rather than regulate the flow of traffic and prevent accidents, motorists in the Federal Capital Territory by commission or omission, constitute a hazard to other road users, by refusing or neglecting to obey traffic signs.It also noted that the greatest violators of the traffic control light signals are VIP vehicles, bullion vans, motorcyclists, dispatch riders, tricyclists and taxi cab vehicles.
