Three people were injured in an auto crash involving two vehicles at the Toll Gate area of the Lagos-Abeokuta expressway, yesterday.
Ogun Commander, Federal Road Safety Corps (FRSC), Anthony Uga, said the crash, which involved a truck and a container, occurred in the early hours of yesterday.
He said one of the vehicles coming from Lagos collided with the one coming from Abeokuta.
The commander said three persons sustained varying degrees of injuries, following the crash.
He said: “The victims have been taken to the General Hospital, Ota, for intensive treatment while our operatives have been deployed to ease the flow of traffic in the area.”
While attributing the accident to reckless driving and speeding, Uga urged motorists to be cautious and exercise patience.
“Motorists should take alternative routes and cooperate with FRSC personnel and those of other sister agencies controlling traffic on the axis to ease free flow of vehicles. They should also reduce speed and adhere strictly to rules and regulations to prevent avoidable crashes on the road,” he added
