HOW TO BEAT TRAFFIC JAM IN LAGOS: RUSSIAN EXPERIENCE


hire an ambulance

Going to work with an ambulace

For commuters in Lagos, waking up as early as 4.30am to hit the road to office have become a norm to Lagosians right from the 80s'.  A rare tactics reported in Russian back in 2013 can be adopted if the desirable is not available then the available becomes desirable.
Going to work with an ambulace could it be an option for Lagosians?. Afterall there is BRT LANE for brt buses so we may have UBER AMBULANCE with its unique lane! Just making common sense.

In Russia, if you're running late and traffic is bad, you can call an ambulance taxi. It looks exactly like a regular ambulance, but they charge you $100-$300. This is, by far, one of the fastest way to travel during traffic jams.

Police in Moscow are to carry out checks on ambulances after reports that emergency vehicles have been fitted with plush interiors and are being rented out to VIP commuters hoping to dodge the city’s appalling traffic jams.

They face random checks after companies advertising rides in “ambulance-taxis” for upwards of 6,000 roubles ($200) per hour appeared on the internet. The vehicles are said to use their sirens to scatter traffic and deliver harried businessmen to meetings on time.
