FCT Administration to crush over 130 impounded substandard vehicles that failed integrity test

The FCT Administration has said it will crush some of the over 130 impounded substandard vehicles that failed integrity test

Dr Abdulateef Bello, Director, Directorate of Road Traffic Services (DRTS), stated this after taking journalists round the impounded vehi-cles in their various offices in Abuja on Monday.

Bello said that the vehicles would be subjected to all standard verification for registration, road worthiness and other checks, adding that those that failed short of minimum standard would be crushed.

He also said that the owners of some of the impounded vehicles would face the mobile court and pay requisite penalties in line with the provision of the law.

“Some of the vehicles that are here; some of them will be made to face the mobile court. The mobile court will decide the kind of penalty that will be given to them.

“But there are some that definitely will not go back to the road. We are going to invite the owners. We will ask them to pick whatever is valuable in the vehicle, and the vehicle will be crushed,” he said.

The director added that those arrested based on crime committed in the guise of commercial operations, would be handed over to the police for prosecution.
