Two people have been killed in a crash when a Toyota Hiace rammed into a stationary truck parked by the roadside in Sapamuro village, Kogi State.

While sympathising with the families of the deceased, the Sector Commander of the Federal Road Safety Corps, Stephen Dawulung, said, “I wish to advise drivers to avoid night travel because visibility is normally poor at night.”

According to him, “Drivers are also most likely to be under fatigue and sleepy at night and yet drive at top speed because the roads are relatively freer of traffic at night. “Drivers must therefore adhere to stipulated speed limits and observe a minimum of 30 minutes rest after every four hours drive to avoid fatigue and sleep while driving.”

He said that passengers should also understand that night journies expose them to higher risks of being involved in a crash.All rights reserved.
