road traffic accidents in Nigeria are often due to speed violations.
In Nigeria, road traffic-related offenses attracted some of the highest penalties when it concerned dangerous driving, medical personnel rejection of road accident patients, inadequate warning at construction sites, failure to report an accident, or operating a vehicle with forged documents. As of 2022, such offenders paid between 20,000 and 50,000 Nigerian naira (NGN), roughly 48-120 U.S. dollars. Road traffic offenses in the country with lower charges included light or sign violations, driving motor vehicles without a crash helmet, driving without a seatbelt, and driving a vehicle while under 18 years. An offender in any of these categories would pay 2,000 NGN, nearly five U.S. dollars. Overall, Road traffic infringement penalties in Nigeria as of 2022 (in Nigerian naira)
