A private bus driver narrowly escaped death on Wednesday after his vehicle, traveling at high speed, suffered brake failure and crashed into a road median near Area B, Apapa.
The swift intervention of Lagos State Traffic Management Authority (LASTMA) officers saved the driver, who was trapped in the wreckage.
LASTMA’s General Manager, Olalekan Bakare-Oki, praised the team’s “exceptional speed and efficiency” in reaching the scene and stabilizing the injured driver. The driver was later transferred to Area B Police and taken to Apapa General Hospital for treatment.
