FRSC Launches All-in-One Mobile App to Enhance Road Safety, Digital Access to Services
– Urges Nigerians to Download Free App on Google Play Store
The Federal Road Safety Corps (FRSC) has unveiled its latest innovation — the FRSC Mobile App, designed to improve road safety, ease access to essential services, and promote digital engagement with the Corps. The all-in-one mobile application is now available for free download on the Google Play Store.
In a press statement released by the Corps Public Education Officer, Assistant Corps Marshal (ACM) Olusegun Ogungbemide, the agency described the app as a strategic move to bridge the gap between technology and public safety, offering Nigerians direct access to FRSC services and critical road use information.
“In one of its major breakthroughs in digital convenience and public safety, the FRSC has launched a robust and user-friendly mobile application called the FRSC Mobile App," the statement read. "It is more than just a convenience tool — it is a life-saving platform created to deepen national safety consciousness and reduce preventable road traffic crashes.”
With rising concerns over road safety and increasing numbers of crashes on Nigerian highways, the Corps said this innovation is a timely response. The mobile app offers real-time safety alerts, traffic intelligence, and streamlined access to services such as driver's licence renewal, vehicle and licence plate verification, and the reporting of road traffic crashes or obstructions.
“This is not just an app; it is a vital safety instrument,” Ogungbemide emphasized. “Its success depends on how widely it is embraced. We call on all motorists, logistics operators, commuters, fleet managers, and members of the public to download and use the FRSC app immediately.”
Key Features of the FRSC Mobile App:
- Driver’s Licence Renewal: Users can renew their licences directly from the app, minimizing delays and reducing physical contact.
- Vehicle and Plate Verification: Motorists can verify the registration status of vehicles and drivers’ licences.
- Real-Time Safety Alerts: The app notifies users of speed limit violations and promotes safer driving practices.
- Black Spot Detection: Access to mapped crash-prone zones allows users to avoid hazardous routes.
- Live National Traffic Radio Streaming: Users can stream National Traffic Radio 107.1 FM for real-time traffic updates and safety advisories.
- Reporting Tool: The app enables reporting of road traffic incidents, obstructions, and personnel misconduct for prompt FRSC response.
According to the Corps Marshal, Shehu Mohammed, who championed the app’s development, the initiative marks a significant step toward leveraging technology for road safety and service delivery.
“This app brings FRSC services closer to the people,” he noted. “It strengthens accountability, eliminates bureaucratic bottlenecks, and empowers Nigerians to stay informed and compliant. In this digital age, ignorance is no longer an excuse for unsafe driving or outdated documents.”
He stressed that downloading the app is not a luxury but a necessity, adding that both motorists and passengers have a shared responsibility in ensuring road safety.
