Lagos State Government celebrates the first horn-free-day

Lagos State Government celebrates the first horn-free-day today, and in a bid to observe this commemoration, the state government has deployed 1,000 duty officers from both LASTMA and VIS to supervise motorist compliance

On the newly introduced horn-free day, all motorists plying routes in the state are not expected to horn, while driving throughout the day.

The purpose of the horn-free day is;

–  To checkmate excess noise in the environment
–  To cultivate respect for other road users
–  To maintain Law and Order governing the road
–  To improve road use courtesy
–  To avoid the indiscriminate use of horn
–  To be a defensive driver.
–  To develop better road-user friendly (BRF) Lagosians

Already, the leadership of  LASTHMA, NURTW and VIS are aware and they have in turn directed members to abide by the horn-free day and to ensure that they do not horn throughout the day.
