He gave the breakdown of the arrested motorists as 2,141 in January, 2,112 in February, 1,725 in March, 1,768 in April, 2,242 in May, 1,318 in June, 2,215 in July, 598 in August, 1,020 in September and 1,598 in October.

According to him, the most common traffic violations in the state include non-possession of fire extinguisher, failure to install speed limiting device, tyre violation, seat belt violation, overloading, route violation, driving against traffic, use of phone while driving, among others.

He said the offenders were arraigned in a mobile court and fined in line with the offences committed.

Mathew, however, urged motorists and other road users in the state to adhere to traffic rules and regulations, and also maintain discipline on the road.

He opined that if motorists obey traffic rules and regulation and also maintain discipline on the road, the accident rate would reduce drastically in the country.
