Frsc commences full implementation of speed limiting device

The Federal Road Safety Corps (FRSC) has announced the full implementation of the speed limiting device on all commercial vehicles in Nigeria. This is a significant step towards reducing road accidents and improving road safety in the country.

The speed limiting device, also known as the Intelligent Speed Adaptation (ISA) system, is designed to prevent vehicles from exceeding the speed limit on public roads. The system uses a combination of GPS, cameras, and sensors to monitor the vehicle's speed and alert the driver if they are exceeding the speed limit.

The FRSC has been testing the system on a pilot basis in some states, and the results have been impressive. According to the FRSC, the system has helped to reduce speeding by up to 90% in areas where it has been implemented.

The full implementation of the speed limiting device is expected to have a significant impact on road safety in Nigeria. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), speeding is a major cause of road accidents, and it is estimated that speeding is responsible for up to 30% of all road traffic fatalities worldwide.

The FRSC has also announced plans to introduce other road safety measures, including the use of dash cams and the implementation of a national road safety strategy. These measures are expected to help reduce the number of road accidents and improve road safety in Nigeria.

Overall, the full implementation of the speed limiting device is a significant step towards improving road safety in Nigeria, and it is expected to have a positive impact on the country's road safety record.
