The Federal Road Safety Corps (FRSC), Cross River Sector has apprehended 113 traffic offenders between January and October.
The Sector Commander, Mr Maikano Hassan, said this in an interview with the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) in Calabar on Wednesday.
He said that 39 of them were convicted by the mobile court set up by the command.
Hassan said the corps recorded only 12 traffic crashes within the period under review, in which seven people died and 44 were injured.
According to him, 17 vehicles were involved in the road traffic crashes which were largely caused by overloading, tire and seat belt violations and speeding among others.
My appeal to motorists is to be patient and law abiding, they should also adhere to all safety rules as provided by law, he said.
He, however listed the violent attitude of motorists, bad road network, lack of logistics support by stakeholders as some of the challenges affecting the operations of the corps.
