The method used in the data collection was secondary method. Time series and t- test were used to analyze the data. The result of the analysis showed that there is decrease in reported cases of cars crashes and increase in reported cases of buses clashes. From the t- test, it shows that there is significant difference between the reported cases of cars and buses that have crashes. It is therefore , recommended that; the Government should extend the road safety campaigns to every nook and cranny, as this will enlighten our people more on the risk of not maintaining discipline on the road when driving, the construction of Lafia - Markudi double lane should be done as a matter of urgency in other to reduce the rate of road crashes in that area, and visible traffic sign code should be placed in strategic area to help instruct road users.en_US
