(i) Always Use Your Seat Belt: 

this rule is for your safety as a driver as well as your passengers yet, many drivers break this law with impunity. Failure to use a seat-belt is bound to land you in trouble with Nigerian traffic marshals.

Disobeying speed limits could land you on the wrong side of the laws. In some states, you could be asked to take a psychiatric test for this kind of offence and Lagos State is a grand example.

(v) Don’t Drive Without a Driver’s License/Learner’s Permit:

It is an offence to drive a vehicle without a valid driver’s licence/learner’s permit as required by law.
