Abstract

World Health Organization (WHO) estimates 1.17m deaths and over 50 million injures per annum worldwide, due to traffic accidents and management, a breakdown shows that about 70% of deaths occur in developing countries like Nigeria, the increased rate of fatal accidents has been attributed to increased motorization, attitudinal factors etc., i.e. driver’s error, over speeding, inexperience and so on. Currently the concept and adoption of road safety management strategies is one commonly adopted worldwide in recent time; this paper therefore examines the application of concepts in accident rate reduction in Nigeria while furthering the investigation that high level of motorization is a causal of accident
