The study aims to identify the causes of accidents involving Okada riders and propose measures to enhance their awareness. Data was collected from 60 commercial motorcycle riders, with 55 valid responses analyzed. The findings reveal that overspeeding, wrong overtaking and poor road conditions are the primary factors contributing to accidents among Okada riders. Many riders fail to adhere to road safety regulations, such as carrying multiple passengers, neglecting safety equipment, and lacking valid licenses. Some riders also engage in drug use while driving, while others lack knowledge of traffic rules. Recommendations include providing adult literacy classes to improve literacy skills among Okada riders, allocating funds for road safety awareness campaigns, improving road infrastructure, enforcing strict penalties for drug-impaired riding, and mandating helmet usage. Additionally, the government should focus on creating employment opportunities for youth to reduce their reliance on motorcycle riding as a livelihood. In conclusion, this research highlights the causes of Okada accidents and suggests measures such as education, awareness campaigns, infrastructure enhancements, law enforcement, and job creation to mitigate these incidents and promote responsible behavior among Okada riders....Preview Download Preview +Other Civil Engineering project topics and materials you might be interested in»Comparing the compressive strength of concrete made with sand as fine aggregate and with chipping dust as fine aggregate»The comparative study of the compressive strength of concrete made with granite to that made with river round stone (pebble) and local stone»The use of computer in civil engineering»Importance of timber in civil engineering construction»Construction and Installation of a Panel Door»Construction of wardrobe key study on wood work»Effect of street trading on traffic performance and control»Assessment of different types of foundation and their mode of construction»Comparison of soil bearing capacity of different locations in Imo state»Investigation into the suitability of sand and gravel materials commonly used in building construction»Investigating the effect of partial replacement of cement with eggshell powder in concrete production»An investigation in to the causes of cracks in building and possible solutions - a case study of Kukar Gesa community in Katsina metropolis»Suitability of available laterite material in Ilorin East local government area for road construction»Determination of the causes, effects of environmental pollution and its possible control within Kwara and Osun state»Model for prediction of rainfall intensity in Lagos
