Avoid LASTMA Trouble: Fix Your Car Papers Today!
The True Cost of Ignorance on Lagos Roads
It was a typical Monday morning in Lagos—sun blazing, horns blaring, and traffic crawling. Mr. Johnson, a commercial driver with over 15 years on the road, thought it was just another day hustling from Ojota to CMS. That was until he was pulled over by traffic officials.
His offence? Driving without road worthiness and no display of Hackney Permit. Before he could explain, his vehicle was impounded. Worse still, he was issued fines running into thousands of naira—money he didn’t have. Just like that, his means of livelihood was gone… all because of paperwork he thought didn’t matter.
This story is far too common.
