FRSC to impound vehicles transporting animals, humans together
The Bauchi command of the Federal Road Safety Corps (FRSC)
says it will prosecute owners of vehicles conveying animals with humans, after
impounding the trucks.
NAN reports that Patrick Ikaba, FRSC sector commander in the
state, said this on Thursday.
Ikaba said the command has been mandated by the FRSC
headquarters to seize vehicles conveying animals and passengers at the same
time.
Ikaba said this has become imperative because in the event
of a crash, the animals fall on the passengers, compounding the fatality rate.
