NRSA directs 2M Express Limited to implement regulation on road pre-trip operational inspections
The National Road Safety Authority (NRSA) has issued a directive to 2M Express Limited, instructing the transport company to comply with regulations mandating pre-trip operational inspections. This measure is part of broader efforts to enhance road safety and minimize accidents involving commercial transport services in Ghana.
The NRSA's directive underscores the need for transport operators to adhere strictly to safety protocols before embarking on trips. Pre-trip operational inspections involve comprehensive vehicle checks to ensure that buses are roadworthy, properly maintained, and meet all safety standards before departure.
Addressing Safety Concerns
The move comes in response to growing concerns over road accidents involving commercial transport operators. The NRSA has reiterated that enforcing pre-trip inspections will help prevent mechanical failures, improve passenger safety, and uphold regulatory standards within the transport sector.
Implications for 2M Express Limited
As one of Ghana’s leading transport operators, 2M Express Limited is expected to fully implement the directive and work closely with regulatory bodies to improve compliance. Failure to adhere to these regulations could result in penalties, including sanctions or potential suspension of operations.
Industry-Wide Impact
The NRSA's enforcement is part of a wider initiative to ensure that all transport companies prioritize passenger safety. Authorities have called on other transport service providers to follow suit, emphasizing that stricter adherence to safety measures is crucial in reducing road traffic incidents.
With this directive, the NRSA aims to instill a culture of responsibility among commercial transport operators, ensuring that road safety remains a top priority in Ghana’s transportation industry.
