“Lagos Is Not A Safe Place To Live”: Trailer Carrying a Full-Loaded Container Was Spotted Driving With One Missing Tyre in Lagos

This video that just appeared online shows the moment a heavy-duty trailer, fully-loaded with a container, was spotted driving through a busy Lagos road while one tyre of the vehicle was missing.

Not only that, but the video also shows that the container the trailer was carrying wasn’t properly latched and could easily fall off if anything went wrong with the vehicle and hit any close-by vehicle.

The video was posted by @carcontinent on Instagram with the caption: “My people, see what I found moving on our road o, are these ones not looking for who to kill like this? One tyre out and they are driving this truck like this.”

Vehicles moving side-by-side with the trailer had to immediately run to the front to avoid being collateral damage in case any incident occurred while the trailer was moving.

Here are some reactions to the post:

@thekingmanofficial commented: “If i was the one I would stop in front of the trailer. I have done it before and won’t hesitate to do it again. Until we see safety as our collective responsibility nothing will happen!”

@omah_leeautos commented: “The problem with Nigerians is we like minding our business when it comes to cases like this. If people stopped that guy from moving; he would have stopped.”

@gregmartins_ltd commented: “I see this almost everyday. In some cases the driver is afraid of stopping not because of road safety but because of Agberos on the road”

@seereal79 commented: “That Corolla had to enter the front to be safe. I fear for you people in that Lagos oh… I can’t imagine driving side-by-side with a truck whose container isn’t properly latched. I’ll just leave the car in the middle of the road.”
