Police in the Ngleshie Amanfro District have blamed reckless driving and general indiscipline among motorists for a fatal crash on the Kasoa–Winneba Highway that left two people dead and several others injured.

The accident occurred near the Kasoa tollbooth on Sunday, 26 October 2025. Chief Inspector Joseph Mensah of the Ngleshie Amanfro District Police MTTD described the crash as “entirely preventable,” saying it reflected a continuing disregard for road safety rules.

“The way our drivers on this stretch drive, and their speeding habits — we have been advising and educating them all the time,” he told Citi News. “Because today was Sunday, they thought the police would not be on the road. Now look at what a driver has done to a passenger.”

Inspector Mensah urged motorists to obey traffic regulations and speed limits to prevent further loss of life. He added that police would continue regular patrols and enforcement exercises along the highway to curb reckless driving.

The Kasoa–Winneba Highway, one of the busiest routes connecting Accra to Ghana’s Central Region, has seen several serious accidents in recent months.
