Chika was late. Lagos traffic had held her hostage for hours, and she was this close to missing her interview. The driver, already frustrated, muttered, “Make I just overtake small, na just one minute.”One minute.That single moment of impatience turned into a close call — a sharp swerve, screaming brakes, a danfo driver cursing out the window. Chika sat frozen. Her life had nearly changed or ended, all because someone wanted to beat the clock.Sadly, stories like this happen every day on Nigerian roads. Impatience. Poor judgment. Zero awareness of safety. It’s not just frustrating, it’s dangerous.But what if we flipped the script?<h2 id="a8560351-8ea4-453e-8f7b-bd7215b5698e" data-toc-id="a8560351-8ea4-453e-8f7b-bd7215b5698e" style="text-align: justify;">Let’s Talk About Smart Road Use</h2>Road safety isn’t just for commercial drivers or FRSC officers. It’s for everyone, from that Uber driver in Abuja to the student rushing to class in LASU, or the mechanic test-driving a customer’s car in Port Harcourt. And that’s exactly why Road Users Academy was created.We built a learning platform for Nigerians who are tired of the chaos and want to do better behind the wheel, on a bike, or even on foot. It’s not some boring lecture series. It’s real-life, relatable, short courses designed for you. Whether it’s understanding how to reverse safely, learning how to put out a vehicle fire, or finally figuring out what that engine light means, we’ve made it simple, smart, and stress-free.<img src="https://ezycourse.b-cdn.net/2338/cmdith31u03okmu9nbne338j7.png" alt="image" draggable="true" style="width: 473px; height: auto; cursor: pointer;"><h2 id="bc1fd6b1-66d2-4622-963b-d3ac1c662715" data-toc-id="bc1fd6b1-66d2-4622-963b-d3ac1c662715" style="text-align: justify;">It’s Not About Passing a Test. It’s About Staying Alive.</h2>What’s the cost of taking one course? What’s the cost of not taking it? A life, a limb, or maybe your job.
