I am just returning from an accident scene at wuse 2 after the famous diamond junction on Ahmadu bello way directly behind sinoni lodge in Abuja .

Now , a 406 prestige car broke down on the way and the owner displayed the caution sign and drop multiple palm trees leaves up to 30 Meters .

The owner went to the next junction called nitel junction to get a towing van and left somebody at the scene flagging on coming vehicles down .

A power bike guy came passing the flagging man, ride on the leaves ,broke the caution sign and hit the vehicle and died on getting to the hospital.so sad .

The bikers gathered called police and their argument was that the duration the car broke down and the time of the accident is long enough for the owner to have evacuated the broke down vehicle so the owner of the car be held responsible for everything.

Now what does the high way code says about such incident?
Is it putting all the necessary precautions that matters or the during the car broke down and is not removed that matters ?

He stumbled on the leaves on a big road, even with a caution sign ahead. RIP to him, it’s a sucide to me.
