On Sunday, a driver operating a yellow Volkswagen ‘T4’ bus with license plate LSR 966 YE found himself in a dire situation when he was apprehended by the Lagos State Traffic Management Authority (LASTMA) and the Nigeria Police. This dramatic event unfolded at the Costain Round-About in the Surulere area of Lagos, Nigeria.
The LASTMA officer leading the enforcement team, Olajide Olukoga, known as ‘Bravo,’ explained that the driver of the Volkswagen ‘T4’ bus was taken into custody for a severe traffic violation. Specifically, he had been picking up passengers directly on the main expressway, causing significant traffic disruptions for other road users in the vicinity of Costain towards Iponrin.
This enforcement operation took place after numerous warnings issued by the state government to commercial bus and private car drivers, emphasizing the importance of using designated bus stops for picking up and dropping off passengers throughout the state.
