REJOINDER:
The Federal Road Safety Corps has asked Nigerians to disregard the earlier publication circulating on social media and other platforms where it was reported that one of it's Unit Commanders said 'FRSC are not authorised to impound vehicle documents or papers' but rather in his statement, the Unit Commander of RS8.17 Ilorin, Mohammed Zakari, said ' I never said that we don't have any authority to impound vehicle documents or papers' rather I said part of the reasons why a vehicle may be impounded is if an erring offender is arrested and unable to produce his or her driver's licence or vehicle papers at the point of arrest.
Quoting from the FRSC Establishment Act Section 10(5d,5h), the Unit Commander highlighted the Section that gave the Corps the Authority to confiscate driver's licence and vehicle documents of any erring motorists.
He said Section 10(5d,5h) states that ' the Corps shall have the power to (d) seize, when necessary, the driver's licence of any person suspected to have committed an offence under this act and the documents and particulars in respect of the vehicles by which the offence is committed or suspected to have been committed.
(h) Impound any vehicle by which an offence under this Act is reasonably suspected to have been committed.
In his conclusion, he urged all members of public to disregard the earlier publication which was misconstrued. He advised them to be law abiding citizens and always obey all traffic regulations to ensure a safe motoring environment.
