FRSC gives condition for use of Google map while driving

The Federal Road Safety Corps (FRSC) has given further instructions to motorists, for the use of Google map while driving.

FRSC corps marshal, Boboye Oyeyemi, gave the condition at a press conference in Abuja on Wednesday.

Recall that there have been series of controversies over the use of google map while driving.

However, the FRSC boss Oyeyemi in his clarification remark said road users could use Google map with the aid of car-holding phone devices.

According to him, anyone caught holding their phone while using the map, will be arrested and prosecuted.

“The use of google map while driving is allowed, but hand-held driving and usage are offences associated with driving and anyone caught would face the law squarely.

“If you must use Google map while driving, you must get the car-holding phone devices which is both for your safety and for better usage of the device and the application,” Oyeyemi said.
