The Federal Road Safety Corps (FRSC) has launched its all-in-one ‘FRSC Mobile App’, a feature-rich platform that places critical road safety services at the fingertips of millions of Nigerians. Available now on the Google Play Store, the app is already gaining attention as a game-changer in the nation’s transport ecosystem.
The mobile application, hailed as a strategic innovation, offers an all-in-one hub for renewing driver’s licences, verifying vehicle number plates, receiving real-time traffic alerts, and accessing a wide range of FRSC services. Designed with the Nigerian road user in mind, it marks a significant leap in the FRSC’s mission to reduce road accidents and promote safety through digital solutions.
According to official communication on FRSC’s verified X handle, the mobile app is more than just a digital tool, it is a national safety intervention aimed at curbing preventable road crashes and increasing awareness across the country. It equips motorists, fleet managers, commuters, and logistics operators with the tools they need to stay safe, compliant, and informed in real time.
The Corps emphasized that the success of this innovation depends on mass adoption by the public. The message is clear: this app is not optional, it is a lifesaving necessity. From the comfort of their homes, vehicles, or offices, Nigerians can now enjoy streamlined access to FRSC services without the long queues or bureaucratic delays that once characterized these processes.
One of the standout features of the app is its ability to allow users to renew their driver’s licences digitally, reducing the need for physical contact and cutting down on turnaround times. It also allows real-time verification of both driver’s licences and vehicle registration status, helping to eliminate fraud and ensuring compliance with national traffic regulations.
Additionally, the app sends instant alerts for speed limit violations, promoting safer driving habits. It also identifies black spots, high-risk crash zones, on major highways, enabling users to avoid dangerous routes and plan their journeys more safely. Another major highlight is the integration of live streaming from the National Traffic Radio 107.1 FM, offering users direct access to real-time traffic updates, safety campaigns, and emergency broadcasts.

He stated that the digital tool aligns with the Corps’ resolve to leverage technology in tackling road crashes and advancing a modern road culture for a modern Nigerian society.
