The Corps Marshal, Federal Road Safety Corps, FRSC, Malam Shehu Mohammed, has directed commanding officers nationwide to make mobile court operations a critical part of the end-of-year enforcement.
Mohammed gave the directive in a statement issued by Corps Public Relations Officer, CPEO, Olusegun Ogungbemide, on Wednesday in Abuja.
The FRSC Corps marshal said that the directive was a proactive approach towards maintaining sanity and reducing incidences of road traffic crashes on the highways.
He said that the move is aimed at intensifying the corps’ efforts in ensuring road safety and reducing crashes during the festive season and beyond.
“The directive has become very necessary because mobile court operations help to promptly prosecute traffic offenders, serving as a deterrent to potential violators.
The Corps marshal also ordered the commanding officers to ensure robust engagement and public enlightenment campaigns to educate road users about the importance of adhering to traffic laws.
