ROAD DISCIPLINARY CHALLENGES: THE CASE OF PEDESTRIANS OF LA NKWANTANANG MADINA ADENTA MUNICIPAL DISTRICT, GHANA
In Ghana, 72 persons out of every 100,000 population, suffered from grievous bodily injuries, and close to 8 of the same population died from Road Traffic Accidents (RTAs) over the past decade. This study was conducted to explore the factors that contribute to pedestrian accidents on our roads as well as ways of preventing these accidents. Data were obtained from 70 pedestrians in the La Nkwantanang Madina Adenta Municipality. The descriptive analysis identified the following as possible causes of pedestrian accidents; pedestrian negligence, pedestrians using mobile phones whilst using the roads, and impatient drivers. The findings underscore the need for local government agencies to spearhead strategies of minimizing road crashes by forming neighbourhood safety groups. Their knowledge could be useful to identify problems that are difficult to detect. Article visualizations:
