Title: LASTMA Operatives Rescue Driver in Severe Road Accident


In a swift and courageous response, operatives from the Lagos State Traffic Management Authority (LASTMA) rescued a driver involved in a serious accident on Thursday. The incident, which occurred along a major road in Lagos, left the driver trapped in his vehicle after a collision that resulted in significant damage to both the car and surrounding infrastructure. 


According to eyewitnesses, the accident happened in the early hours when a sedan lost control, veering off the road and crashing into a concrete barrier. The impact trapped the driver, causing concerned passersby to alert emergency responders. LASTMA operatives promptly arrived at the scene, immediately assessing the situation and taking measures to free the driver from the wreckage.


Reports confirm that the LASTMA team, in collaboration with other emergency services, used specialized equipment to carefully extricate the driver. Despite the severity of the collision, the driver was pulled from the car with minimal injuries and was quickly transferred to a nearby hospital for a thorough medical examination.


The rescue operation not only demonstrated the dedication and skill of LASTMA officials but also highlighted the importance of having trained personnel prepared for emergency situations. “Their quick response was critical in preventing further harm and ensuring that the driver received prompt medical attention,” said a representative from the Lagos State Traffic Management Authority. 


The Lagos State Government commended the LASTMA operatives for their professionalism and urged motorists to exercise caution to prevent such incidents. This timely intervention adds to LASTMA’s ongoing efforts to maintain safety and rapid response on Lagos roads, a priority that continues to ensure safer travel for all road users in the city. 


With road safety and public well-being at the core of its operations, LASTMA’s quick action in this incident underscores its commitment to making Lagos a safer place for residents and visitors alike.
