As the rainy season sets in, Rwanda National Police has warned motorists against careless driving and over speeding during the rainy season.
According to the RNP website, drivers are instructed to respect traffic rules and avoid careless driving which always leads to fatal road accidents.
Rain makes the road slippery and reduces visibility. It can make it more difficult to stay on a road, to stop, or to avoid colliding with other vehicles.
If you can’t stop your car in time that’s when accidents happen, most especially following poor mechanical conditions of vehicles.
Passengers, pedestrians, car owners and drivers are urged to take responsibility of maintaining road safety to avoid such accidents. Preventing these accidents is practically feasible.
