CAGAYAN de Oro City Administrator Teddy Sabuga-a has asked the Roads and Traffic Administration (RTA) to submit a list of accident-prone streets or areas in the city to warn motorists and prevent accidents.
Sabuga-a said he asked for a list of sites of accidents that happened at least three years back.
After coming up with a list, the city will put up strong messages such as pointing out how many died at a certain site due to a traffic accident.
Sabuga-a said he is also looking into the possibility of getting insurance for all of the city government's properties.
"The insurance is very helpful so that in times of disaster, you won't sit and wait for the supplemental budget or whatever, because you have the insurance. If streetlights will be damaged, schools and buildings will be burned down, the recovery of our infrastructure is fast," he added.
This move was initiated following an accident on Mastersons Avenue in Ilaya, Barangay Carmen on Sunday night, November 11.
A car allegedly lost control and hit a post and a traffic signage in the said area. The couple inside the car were allegedly having sex while the car was moving when the accident happened.
"We are still waiting for the report and we could possibly impose fines," he added.
