The Lagos State Traffic Management Authority (LASTMA) impounds 84 commercial and private vehicles during a weekend enforcement operation targeting traffic offences in several busy areas of the state. The exercise takes place around Idumota, Iddo, Ijora-Olopa, Costain and Onipanu.
According to reports, the operation focuses on restoring order and improving compliance with traffic rules. The outlets describe the crackdown as part of LASTMA’s broader efforts to address persistent violations on major routes. Daily Post Nigeria specifies that enforcement includes moves against one-way driving and the activities of illegal garages, alongside other offences.
Vanguard Nigeria also reports that the vehicles are seized for various traffic offences during the operation. While both outlets agree on the number of vehicles impounded and the locations, they differ slightly in the particular categories of violations highlighted.
