Ashanti MTTD, NRSA, others embark on ‘Arrive Alive’ campaign to reduce road accidents
Ashanti Regional Motor Traffic and Transport Unit (MTTD), Driver and Vehicle Licensing Authority (DVLA) and the National Road Safety Authority (NRSA) are embarking on road safety Campaign dubbed “Arrive Alive’’ aimed at reducing carnage on the roads before, during and after Christmas.
The campaign seeks to sensitise road users and the public on the need to prioritise road safety ahead of the yuletide as part of efforts to reduce fatalities on the road.
In an interview with OTEC FM’s reporters Afia Kyem Agyemang and Enoba Afia Aboagyewaa on Wednesday, December 16, 2020, the Ashanti Regional Motor Traffic and Transport Department (MTTD) commander of the Ghana Police Service, Supt. Mr Emmanuel Adu Boahen said the Department envisaged that commercial drivers would attempt to make up for the lost time by increasing their number of trips in a day, which was often characterised by traffic violations.
