Two drivers fight for the right of way on Lagos road
Meanwhile, Legit.ng previously reported that two drivers were spotted fighting for the right of way on a road in Lagos.
The driver of the vehicle behind them filmed the drama as a Toyota Corolla tried to forcefully enter a lane but was unsuccessful because the Hyundai car in the lane wouldn't allow such.
Both drivers wouldn't mind the damage they were about to cause their cars as the vehicle kissed each other and their side mirrors almost got damaged. The Hyundai car eventually won and the Toyota Corolla trailed behind him as the traffic eased.
