A research by the John Hopkins International Injury Research Unit has found drivers in Ghana are three times more likely to speed on weekends as compared to weekdays.
This came up during the Bloomberg Road Safety workshop in Kumasi.
The research which took place between November 2020 and May 2022 in Kumasi sought to observe risk factors such as speeding as well as use of helmet, seat belt and child restraint.
It was conducted through roadside observations.
In all, four rounds of speed observations were made.
