Imagine that a major road that connects a major part of Lagos is that terrible? Imagine potholes on a so called expressway that's like gullies? And because the very long stretch of road is called an expressway, you know that it has a minimum speed limit that should normally be allowed!
So you speed too much then it's at your own unfortunate peril! That's because you could just arrive at one of those gully like major potholes all of a sudden, and to try to manoeuvre out of harm's way at such speed might just be too late, it's either you enter which is terrible on its own especially at a speed or you try to to do a split second shift away and it's a collision with whoever is on the side, any which way it's not a good outcome! So why is the stretch called expressway? Majorly because expressways have multiple lanes to and fro that carries heavy loads of traffic, (that is mass of cars, trucks etc) and because of how bad the situation is, it makes one to ask again "expressway to where please"? The only answer that readily comes to mind would be ", Expressway to quick and untimely death!
More after the break.
