Abstract
Accidents occur all over the world in different forms, caused by many factors. Like many developing countries, the rates of accidents are on the rise. I was motivated to write this article to create awareness and also to add my voice to the many others, in order to reduce the road carnage. Accidents cause loss of lives, physical, emotional, social and economic effects for all involved. I carried out a number of interviews and literature review on the subject. I similarly delved into police crime reports and The Traffic and Road Safety Act of 1998. The result of this research is that road accidents can be reduced if drivers can be disciplined and follow the law, road infrastructure networks to cater for the increased vehicular traffic on the narrow roads. This research took me about 50 days which included waiting for return of questionnaires. The survey was supported by Survey Monkey, a free online resource.
