Let’s be extra careful during the Easter season

 Dear Editor,

I would like to draw the attention of drivers and the general public on the need to ensure safety during this Easter season.

They must strictly adhere to road safety regulations to prevent road crashes during this year’s Easter activities.

The general public are also en­treated to be extra careful in order not to fall victims to criminals espe­cially those who will be travelling to visit their relatives and loved ones.

I would like to admonish various churches to beef up security in their respective events to commemorate the occasion.

I would also like to encourage the police to be at vantage points to check on drivers who are fatigue and yet drive, as well as drivers who are not mentally or emotionally stable.

Due to the series of activities in town, some commercial drivers would want to cash in. In so doing, they end up working day and night, refusing to get some rest.

I would like to urge the National Road Safety Authority (NRSA) to educate drivers and ensure that they are in a good state of mind.

The general public must ensure that they put their safety first in whatever they do during this Easter season.

Dorothy Ayebea,
