The Itori Command of the Federal Road Safety Corps in Ogun State has advised the public to desist from entering vehicles at undesignated parks across the state, in order not to fall victims of criminals as elections approach.

The Itori Unit Commander of FRSC, Mr Aliyu Yahaya, gave the advice  in an interview on Thursday in Ota, Ogun State.

According to him, nobody will be able to identify any of such vehicles when they perpetuate their evil acts.

“People boarding vehicles from undesignated parks and garages are prone to high risks, especially kidnapping and robbery and, sometimes, ritual activities, because it would be difficult to give any meaningful information about them,” he said.

Yahaya also said that drivers of such vehicles, who do not load from designated parks, were always flouting traffic rules and regulations that could sometimes lead to loss of lives and property, due to crashes.

The unit commander, however, advised members of the public to call the FRSC toll-number 122, in case of emergency, crashes and obstructions on the
roads.

He also implored motorists to stop at the nearest office of the FRSC, if they noted any strange development on the highways during the festive period.
