Install rails/walls to protect vehicles uptop from falling over. Do away with this roundabout foolishness and resort to 4lane interesting streets with stop lights

Driving in Ghana is difficult because of lack of enforced rules. We need more stop signs, traffic lights and no roundabouts. Every street must have a name with speed limits posted, houses and businesses must have numbers visibly displayed to make driving around the city easy.

Most ghanians drive and speed with out thinking also, most drivers in Ghana lack common sense in terms of driven, some think the fact that it is indicated on the speedometer e.g. 220km/h means they can speed up to that,forggeting the dynamics of stability of the car changes with speed.Also some drive just to impress or prove their car is faster.

Nana you are right on the mentality of most drivers on our roads. Reading the story, the driver lost control negotiating a bend. The question is "negotiating the bend at what speed?" I think its high time these recklessness were treated as crime and perpetrators dealt with by the law.

Those people excuse me to say,they behave like animals,they have no respect for the law,they drive at any speed they prefer,not what the law says,accidents are bound to happen but some can be prevented if we do things like other normal people do,they are always speeding on that road,not slowing down, not yielding to traffic making driving very dangerous for people.

That guy definitely drove carelessly which made him to lose control of the car.

Speed Limit Sign boards in towns in Ghana are just street decorations. Nobody even looks at them.

AN OPPORTUNITY FOR SOME FAKE PASTORS TO PROPHECY THAT THEY SAW THE ACCIDENT IN A VISION? ALL THAT NANA ADDO KNOWS IS TO RELY ON FALSE PROPHETS TO DECLARE HIM PRESIDENT!

Ignore this internet troll. Just google the meaning of 'troll' and you wouldn't have to read his comment when you see it. Just don't dignify his nonsense, period. And remember to watch out for others like him.

An accident can occur anywhre within the universe. But we need to be extra careful in certain places in order to avoid or minimise accident. Drinkdriving does not help at all.

Of course an accident can occur anywhere. But for a car to topple over a flyover suggests poor quality design, construction and materials used. In London and of course any advanced countries it is not possible for this to happen. Why,? Because there would be strong walls or railings to prevent vehicles toppling over flyovers.
Sam London 10 years ago

Yes, poor design and construction. This shouldn't have happened. A crash barrier along side of the flyover could have prevented this. Lack of road signs also make create hazardous driving conditions.

Over speeding is the main cause of about 90% of accidents in Ghana. They believe that going fast means you are a better driver.

Our attitude reflects on everything that goes on in Ghana. In serious terms, most Ghanaians behave worse than DOGS. Trotro and taxi drivers behave like they don't have brains at all. We need strict and efficient laws that make people pay for behaving stupidly. Frankly, there are so many stupid people walking in Ghana!

The article has two pictures (photos). Click them and you will see that there are solid Guard rails. It seems the driver was speeding, lost control hit the car, which then catapulted over the rail

Authorities should do something about the top so that nothing like this will happen again over there. This is very serious
