Abstract
Traffic crashes resulting in injury, low productivity and deaths remain a serious public health problem in developing countries, Lagos state included. This survey examined driving habits of various categories of drivers in Lagos to see the effect of training at the Lagos State Drivers’ Institute on their driving skills. 250 respondents were proportionately selected and the questionnaire was given to drivers who have attended training at the Institute. The t-test was significant at 5%, which suggested, among others, that re-training be made mandatory and the Institute’s outreach programs expanded.
