LASTMA Rescues Driver, Passengers After Bus Rams Into Trailer in Lagos

 


A commercial bus rammed into a containerised trailer on Outer Marina Road early today, injuring the driver and passengers.


The accident occurred at about 7:02 a.m. as a result of over-speeding, which led to a brake failure.


According to the Director, Public Affairs and Enlightenment Department of LASTMA, Mr Adebayo Taofiq, LASTMA operatives who were on the scene quickly moved to rescue the occupants of the trapped bus.


“Immediately the accident happened, our personnel who were along the axis quickly moved to the scene to rescue the occupants of the trapped commercial bus (driver and passengers) with the support of sympathetic road users.


All rescued passengers and the driver were taken to a nearby hospital for medical treatment, Lastma Ashafa Moyosore (Zebra 1, Olowu), who led the operations, said.


The General Manager of LASTMA, Mr Bolaji Oreagba, warned motorists, particularly commercial bus drivers, to exercise caution and adhere to the speed limit.
