The Ghana Highways Authority should embark on routine road maintenance,
ensure proper road design labels, erect road signs and warning signals, and the
construction of bumping at appropriate locations and remove all unauthorized
bumping on the roads. The absence of road maintenance especially on the
highways places road users at a high risk for traffic injuries.
The police should prevent heavy duty vehicles from travelling overnight. this is
because my study has shown a higher case fatality in early morning hours which
could be as a result of fatigue or sleeping.
The CEPS should enforce the law banding the importation of over-aged vehicles
and also ensure that all imported vehicle have crash protective equipment such as
air bag, seat belts, and the like. Also the GPRTU and PROTOA should regularly
inspect their vehicles road worthiness before they embark on journey.
