AN ASSESSMENT OF DRIVING BEHAVIOUR AND ATTITUDE OF YOUNG DRIVERS IN NIGERIA

By Olumide Agunbiade

The 19th century industrial revolution resulted in some fundamental changes in the transport sector and provided more flexibility of movement, speed, and timing. Since then, there has been an upsurge in both human and vehicular motor movement, a situation that has also resulted in more fatal road accidents.

Despite integrated efforts towards reducing fatal road accidents, Nigeria still remains one of the worst hit countries. With a human population of about 167 million, a high level of vehicular population estimated at over 7.6 million, a total road length of about 194,000 kilometres (comprising 34,120 km of federal, 30,500 km of state, and 129,580 km of local roads), the country has suffered severe losses to fatal car accidents (Sumaila et al, 2018). Its population density varies in rural and urban areas at about 51.7% and 48.3% respectively and translates to a population–road ratio of 860 persons per square kilometre, indicating intense traffic pressure on the available road network. Undoubtedly, this immense pressure contributes to the high road traffic accidents in the country (FRSC 2018).
