LASTMA: LAGOSIANS URGED TO REPORT TRAFFIC INCIDENTS USING WHISTLEBLOWERS APP
By Olayiwola Ibrahim // With an advanced technology development, the Lagos State Traffic Management Authority LASTMA has set a goal to reduce traffic congestion in Lagos with the introduction of an application called whistleblower app to report and caution traffic management in the State.
The application empowers Lagosians to report reckless driving, traffic violations, one-way contraventions, and other disruptive occurrences directly to LASTMA.
Whether navigating a traffic snarl, witnessing an accident, or encountering a hazardous vehicle, users can seamlessly alert nearby LASTMA personnel.
Upon receiving such reports, the agency will respond swiftly to address the situation whether by decongesting traffic, managing accident scenes, or removing obstructive vehicles thereby fostering a safer and more efficient commuting experience for all.
Traffic woes in Lagos are often aggravated by drivers who flagrantly disregard traffic regulations—ignoring signals, taking one way routes, and infringing on the rights of other road users.
Lagosians now have a practical tool in the Whistle app to report these violations to avoid such infractions and lamentations.
Once verified, our teams will deploy necessary resources to address these issues promptly.
We urge the public to collaborate with us in cultivating safer and more orderly roadways throughout the state, stated LASTMA.
Let us join forces to alleviate traffic bottlenecks and ensure a smooth and enjoyable festive season for everyone.
Download the Whistle app from the Play Store today and contribute to safer Lagos roads.
