BE FINALLY FREE! | The 7 Documents you need to drive your car in Nigeria, Cost and Where to get it

To be free while driving in Nigeria, you need 7 documents for your car after registering your car and getting the particulars. These 7 documents are what would be checked whenever you encounter the Federal Road Safety Officials (FRSC), VIO, Police and other road law enforcement agencies that vary across every state in Nigeria.
Please feel free to tell us how much you did yours and also your experiences when you have been stopped and just generally contribute to this to make someone else's life easier.
Your Nigerian Driver's License is not enough to get you running on the road.
We noticed that the standard prices for obtaining these documents that we see on Government owned websites are false, they have been changed a long time ago but not effected on the website thereby misleading Nigerian motorists.

A much needed video

[@christophergodspower7987]

Wow! Fisayo Fosudo don't even know all this things 😊😊. FF I am not trolling you man just excited to see you watch 234Drive channel. Much love.

[@FisayoFosudo]

@@christophergodspower7987 haha. I know all this. I’m glad someone is putting the information out there in good quality. Police don show me pepper too. 😂😂

[@thegamersarcade9630]

1.license 2.proof of ownership 3. insurance document 4.road worthiness certificate 5.vehicle license 6.optional(hackney permit ) 7.tinted glass permit.(government says it’s not compulsory but some police officers still ask for it).

[@abeeomeiza33]

Road worthiness for commercial vehicles expires every 6 months!

[@only_viralclip]

All police ask tinted permit

[@segun7206]

What about police clearance and CMR ?

[@Tm_37]

Road worthiness is the most useless paper in Nigeria because the roads are not even car worthy.

[@uelrakautos]

As regards the tinted permit, let me add that it's not available for factory tinted cars. You need the permit for cars that you tint here locally and however the permit has been suspended for now. Note that if you have your car after the suspension of the permit, at every official check point, you roll down all your windows. This assures the Officials of their safety and yours. Thanks.

[@donpabsdarlingtonigomoz8047]

You also need to make sure that your tyres are not expired, many people don't really know this, but the FRSC is very much against it.

[@konukonu6368]

Fabulous well thought out content and insight into Nigerian motoring. Want to ask a question ❓ Planning a weekend fun ( not wild) road trip from Lagos to Accra, with my own car. When I come to Nigeria later this month. What documentation will be needed and from my estimation should not take more than 8/9 hours. One other thing I have a UK driver's license. Many thanks

[@LordVodka313]

There are so many people who have acquired knowledge to navigate everything that is involved in having a car in Nigeria. But no one I know has committed to having a dedicated KZbin channel talking about these things. Much respect for doing so

[@levelz3168]

Great video. But i was waiting to hear custom duty.. that can make you lose your car

[@tlawal9450]

Thanks for the video very informative 👍. But one thing I think you forgot to mention is just have extra cash at hand for the very stubborn officers alot of them are just there to make money of the citizens so the earlier you speak their language the better.

[@osasogieodiase6324]

Love you bro ❤️🅿️🅿️🅿️

[@raymondhill5099]

In as much as this is a very good content and I love the energy you put into this. But when I remember how damfo, okada, Keke and the rest drive like mad people with expired and incomplete papers and yet road officials don’t bother checking on them. All they are after are private car owners so they can extort them. You can have all your papers intact and when they can’t pin anything on you they will hold your papers and delay you unreasonably until you drop something.

[@234drive]

Omo bros, you no lie at all 👏

[@akpanedidiongemmanuel7224]

Na why e good to get multiple copies in your car, that’s what I do, I just photocopy like 5 for each and then tender to an officer if he wants to delay me I just zoom off.

Thanks frank! You didn't mention the validity period of the Hackney permit and tinted glass permit

Hackney is a yearly thing. Tint permit...I don't know of but I think it should be for life. I never needed the permit.

Please my brother can you make a video on fuel consumption of cars in Nigeria 🤝

[@remiadeniyi8493]

You are doing a good job. But please if there is a way to get this across to Nigerians who may have to pass through Edo State, please tell them that EDO STATE police will ask them for "INFORMATION REQUIRED" document or some of them stupidly call it CMR. This is for vehicles registered in Lagos most time. If you have all documents in this video and Information Required as they call it, you are 100% good to to in Edo State. They will stop you but let you go

[@AyoAbiodunofLagos]

Can you do a review on the mazda 6?

[@yinkaoyedun9196]

Thank you sir for this enlightenment. Please, why is the absence of an extra tyre an offense? Is there any harm or discomfort attached to this that is not also attached to you running out of fuel on the road? If it is an offense for vehicles then y is it not for motorcycles? Yes I can relate with the use of bad or worn-out tyres. Thanks

[@danielcourage9569]

Can you do a review on Toyota Avalon

[@234drive]

You are the big boys of Nigeria

[@PoliticalAtheist80]

Just 3 documents required in the UK to legally drive your car. 1 - V5C Document - registers your vehicle with the DVLA (Driver & Vehicle Licensing Agency). This document proves that you own the car. 2 - Insurance - Third party etc or Comprehensive. You can pay monthly or annually. 3 - Drivers License - Learner means you can drive a car but a person with a full license must accompany you in the vehicle. Otherwise you'll need a full driver's license to drive unsupervised. NB -;MOT (Ministry of Transport) check is carried out once a year on cars over 3 years old. This checks vehicle safety, roadworthiness, and exhaust emissions. Once your car passes MOT the LICENSED MECHANIC issues your certificate.

[@elyonsheirsassembly765]

Just roll ur windows down wen u approach a check point. That way nobody sees a tint

[@MarceloMarcelo-ug6mc]

Still waiting for the Toyota Avalon review.

[@ameerdodo9750]

What about ECMR? Or allocation of Number

[@enenduchinemelum2366]

You forgot to add something You need to make sure that your tires are not expired, every tire has an expiry date, be up to date with your tires so that they don't put in trouble. Thanks

[@osuolaleoyeleye4584]

Opooor

[@ugokoli]

Abuja FRSC will require you to have a razor blade for emergency release situations. Also, not only that you should have a spare tyre, but all 4 plus spare must not be expired tyres... yes tyres have expiration date written on them by the manufacturers.

Razor Blade?
