Reckless Father Exposes Son To Danger

A scene captured by the cameras of the Daily Heritage newspaper has revealed that, drivers are not the only road users to be looked out for and arrested by the Motor Traffic and Transport unit of the Ghana Police service over road offences but also, parents who carelessly and recklessly expose their children to danger while using the road. The paper�s cameras caught a sight of one of such reckless parents around Adabraka who was actually carrying his son on a bicycle on one side of his body with his right hand holding the boy and his left hand holding the bike. The scene indicated that the man was riding his son home from school but ended up exposing the man, other road users and his son specifically to danger since he had a divided attention on the boy and other users of the road. The implication of his action, therefore, meant that, in case of any interference on the road, the man was in no position to neither blow his horn nor brake without harming the child.
