If you drive in Nigeria, you need to see this list of traffic offenses and fines

Happy people, I hope you all are having a great day.So I found this very interesting list of traffic offenses and I couldn't help but wonder why the fine for driving under the influence was so low. I feel like this just means, "it's okay to drive under the influence". Please why on earth is the fine so low? But anyway, see full list below and know your rights so that the next time you get pulled over you ask for a ticket. Like rights work in Nigeria! 

Anyway, stay happy guys. Xoxo
