The Federal Road Safety Corps Lagos Sector Command has reminded motorists that February 14th of every year is a day to share love and celebrate and should not be turned to day of mourning.
 
Its Sector Corps Commander Olusegun Ogungbemide stated this over the weekend that citizens who desire to celebrate on that day must ensure whoever is driving the vehicle stays away from Alcoholic drink to avoid not becoming victims of road traffic crash due to drunk driving or overspeeding.
 
He reiterated that distracted driving is one of the dangerous activities engaged in by motorists on the day hence the need to adopt defensive driving for safe trips back to their destinations.
 
He reminded motorists that FRSC men will be deployed at strategic locations throughout the state to curb any infractions to traffic rules and regulations.

The men, he noted will be with breathalyzers to test motorists in order to detect those who drive under influence of alcohol and get them arrested accordingly.
 
He finally admonished motorists to avoid drunk and distracted driving and wish everyone a crash free celebration.

This is contained in a statement made available by FRSC Public Education Officer,
Route Commander Olabisi Sonusi.
