CHAPTER ONE
1.1 INTRODUCTION
According to Oxford Learners
Dictionary accident is defined as something that happens without a
cause that can been seen at once, usually something unfortunate and
undesirable. This means that accident can happen at anytime, anywhere
and any moment. In most cases accident result from carelessness or
recklessness.
Road accident may be said to occur when many vehicles
do not meet the safety requirement of the traffic operation. Road
accident have become a major problem in the country, many people both
old young have lost their lives as a result of road accident.
The rate of accident in this state varies from time to time and
increase during the end of the year and decreases at the beginning of
the year and also the number of cars double for the fact that during
this period, the number of not or vehicle are more than doubled, odes
not mean that the roads becomes less safer. Why then is it that the
rate of road accident in Enugu – Onitsha Express Road is not stable as
other roads in the state?
The answer is that first, we lack
sufficient collective will to put an end once and for all, to the perils
caused us by road accident.
Second, our understanding of the
situation is low because of the fragment nature of its occurrence (is
not how many people or families are affected at a time and this has made
people to slow down, I don’t care to behaviaour it). It does happen
because we cannot predict its period of occurrence.
If we have the
good will, we should find the way, for we cannot assume the number of
accident rate are beyond a number that man could. Solue, once they have
been identified. Some people are non chalant because they are not
directly affected. Perhaps they are not divers or carousers, that not
withstanding they are affected somehow its effects on the public
migration are not cumulative another reason why we cannot reduce the
rate of accident in Enugu – Onitsha Express Road to its lowest rate of
occurrence is that from the point of view of the government and
financial cost of an integrated road transport system represent one of
one many cells on the national income there by a time they forget about
and road transport system. By this I mean that the decision is
essential government by consideration of a political nature.
In
principle, the number of casualties on the road could be reduced to any
required level, provided there was sufficient investment of economic and
social effort that could minimize or reduce it.
In view of what has
been said about appraisal of accident rate in Enugu – Onitsha Express
Road, it may be said to occur when many vehicle do not meet the safety
requirement of the traffic role as it can always be seen.
Road
accident is normally a failure of the control system the starting point
in how to prevent accident along Enugu – Onitsha Express Road should be
understood. What is required of many vehicles?
