“Our statistics in June showed that 111 people were unhurt out of the 211 people involved in the recorded accidents.
“We were able to educate 171 road users arrested for various offences while driving on the roads.”
Oke advised motorists to desist from making calls while driving and to also avoid drinking as well as to do away with other acts capable of leading to accidents.
He warned that the command would never allow traffic offenders to go unpunished.
