(AFRICAN EXAMINER) – The Federal Road Safety Corps (FRSC) in Ondo State on Wednesday warned motorists to desist from driving without valid driver’s license or face the full wrath of the law.

Mr Ezekiel SonAllah, State Sector Commander of FRSC, made the disclosure while speaking on the command’s preparedness towards Ember Months flag off .

SonAllah said that the ember months flag off was to sensitise and educate road users on how best to use the road.

He said that it had become imperative for motorists who ply the roads, especially highways, to obtain genuine driver’s license before embarking on any journey.

“Driver’s license is the only legal document that permits a person to be on the road to drive and if one doesn’t have it, then, one has no business driving.

“Sometime, people will tell you they forgot their driver’s license.

“At any point in time, if you don’t have a driver’s license you are not a driver because what guarantees or shows you are a driver is when you are in possession of your driver’s license.

“So, I want to tell motorists that if you don’t have driver’s license in the ember months in Ondo State, you have no business being on the highways because you are already a potential danger,” he said.
