Atanda, I printed the List of vehicle offence and their punishment you posted two days ago and kept it in my car.
I was stopped by the FRSC yesterday and he was telling that my offence is 15k, i brought out the List to show him it's 3k.
The other officers had to come take a look
They ask me where i got it.
I told them where i got it does not matter and ask them to see the reference below from their own law you put in the write up
So i ask them to show me where this my offence is 15k under the FRSC law
