The Federal Road Safety Commission has recorded low accident rate during the yuletide period.
Kayode Olagunju, who is the Commander in charge of Okene-Lokoja-Abaji and Abuja for the Christmas and New Year period, said this in Abuja, but did not give any figures to buttress his claim.
He added that the commission has recorded some crashes on the road, but, as said earlier by the Corp Marshal few days ago, we are not where we wanted to be but the rate is lower than what it was last year.
Today, the road is better than it was three days ago, traffic was very heavy because a lot of people delayed their movement till Christmas Day.
He also said the major problem the commission had on the road was that of some senior government officials who have the privilege of using siren, disrupted the traffic arrangement on ground.
They put on their siren and their convoy disorganise the traffic control arrangement and when they move many other road users followed them.
