Federal Road Safety Corps, FRSC, Corps Marshal Boboye Oyeyemi Sunday expressed satisfaction with the advisory enforcement of speed limiting device nationwide, as 2,800 commercial vehicles were issued tickets on the take off of the scheme.

According to Bisi Kazeem, Head Media Relations and Strategy, FRSC, Oyeyemi said the enforcement was not to inflict pain on motorists and road users rather that it was for commercial vehicle owners to voluntarily imbibe the culture of its usage and key into it.

Kazeem said the advisory enforcement is a sort of subtle force that entails stopping commercial vehicles, verifying electronically whether the devise is fixed and giving citation to offenders for corrective purposes. The exercise is also known as free safety checks.

In the coming days, Kazeem said, the leadership of the organized transport unions such as NURTW, NUPENG PTD, NARTO, RTEAN LUBOAN shall be involved in the advisory enforcement by joining FRSC top officers to patrol. He therefore advised commercial vehicle operators to continually patronize the devise as there is no going back on its full and real enforcement come January 2017.
