“Our research department has begun investigations into the recent spate of accidents. It is consistent with our mandate when these incidents occur especially when it involves occasional vehicles we often take time to understand the extent of operational lapses as far as the road crashes are concerned so we look at what else ought to be going forward to avoid such incidents.”
