Nonesense. What sort of speed was the driver going in that built location.

When did roads in front of Shopping Malls become Highways to be ramming into vehicles at almost 60km/h.

Build locations speed limit is 50 kh not more.This indicates that they bought their license without any knowledge of road signs and regulations OOOOH Kwame Nkrumah's Ghana what happened after his death? Lord Jesus save us

most of these 4x4 owners got the car free so they dont have respect for the car it self. if you work hard to buy it you treat it like a baby or egg. that is the outcome.

Edem, some of our fellow Ghanaians are so stupid and blind that they cant differentiate between a square and a round hole. this accident most often is caused by the truck drivers not having any warning signals about 50 meters from the stationary vehicle.they most often aren't held accountable. all those idiots here insulting the deceased will surely experience something like this to know its not a matter of overspedding.

It was an accident in waiting last night as we passed around it with a heavy traffic. Legon police is just around the corner but no, they will rather go harass tro-tro drivers.

The police should arrest any driver that failed to put warning triangle behind his or her broken down vehicle. Whether it cause accident or not.

Traditional Satanism is not simply an inversion, but a complete rejection of the images of a
0244908520particular culture, religion, or philosophy. From there a Satanist uses those images against the ethos itself, that was once his own conditioning. Persons who participate in traditional Satanic masses sometimes experience a king of 'sartori', a sudden enlightenment, to an increase in their own consciousness, and feeling stronger and satisfied because they had broken with the constraining opposites. In other words, at its highest level Satanism uncovers what the ethos of a particular community or society has covered up through images, dogma, words and ideas, returning the individual to the primal chaos out of which 'opposites' were created." ~ Magister Hagur, Temple of Atazoth Office

I remember Ghana Highway Authority brought a law that when a car develops a fault on a highway, there is a specific hours that when it's not removed by driver/owner, the Law will come in to tow that particular car. my question is, WHERE IS THAT LAW? That truck has been there since Saturday as I personally drove passed it!!! and it's soo closer to LEGON POLICE STATION!!!
My other question is, AS A COUNTRY, ARE WE ALRIGHT?
we pass law and hide the Law at the various police stations and it deals with only trotro and Taxi drivers alone.

I am highly disappointed in Legon Police Station for allowing such thing to happen!!!

Because where the truck was parked is curvy that any driver who doesn't use that road might fall for such accident. besides there was noooo reflected triangular sign indicating a faulty truck.

God have mercy on this country because our leaders don't care about we the ordinary Ghanaians!!!

Ghana fo) Kasa, does the car belongs to Police. You my make sure your car is towed when it breaks down, or put the ryt instrument on the road to warn drivers, the driver of the truck should be charged. Leave the Police alone

The foolishness of this nation is beyond repute. There were two of these vehicles parked on the legon dual carriage way for two days. I nearly run into the first car just a day before this accident happened causee, there was no warning triangle to wArnold drivers of the danger ahead. I was speeding when all of a sudden I saw these fully loaded vehicles parked on the main road, I just escaped it narrowly and said to myself, when will these trucases be towed away? I knew definitely this incident will happen, hence I was not surprised when I came across this accident. This is the country we live in, nothing matters except politics and bribery. Where were the police ? Am sure they only responds to such incident cause some has to die before they can act. Sad country.
