  If want to achieve safety on our roads, there are three critical areas to address-road, vehicle, and driver. The roads are not vehicle worthy. The vehicles are not road worthy. And the drivers are unfit to drive the vehicles. So we have a compound problem!

  THANK YOU FOR THIS PIECE.
  ITS A NIGHTMARE TO DRIVE ON GHANA ROADS.
  I ALWAYS ASK IF THOSE IN CHARGE FOR THE ROAD MAINTENANCE ALSO USSE THE ROADS. MALLAM FLYOVER IS A CATASTROPHE. MALLAM TO KANESHIE POTHOLES ANOTHER DANGER. DONT TALK ABOUT THE HAZARDOUS ROADWORKS ON THE WINNEBBA ROAD.
  NO DEMACATIONS ON MAJOR ROADS LIKE THE N1, NO STREET LIGHTS.
  SOMETIMES THE POTHOLES YOU FIND ON SOME ROADS ARE UNACCEPTABLE.
  I THINK THE PEOPLE IN CHARGE DO NOT RESPECT GHANAIANS, OTHERWISE THEY WOULD LET US GO THROUGH THIS STRESS WHEN DRIVING.
  
  GOD HELP US.
