 2 Kentucky teens mysteriously disappeared last night after crash notification sent out from cell phone.  17-year-old Abigail Crain and Kollier Yarbrough were last seen around 1 a.m.,  April 28th, at the Calvert City drive-in.  The two were in a 2005 black Chevy Silverado with Kentucky plates # J1S390. Soon after leaving the drive-in, a crash alert was sent from one of their phones to officials via E911. The parents were also notified by Life 360. However once the anxious parents and first responders went to the site from which the notification was sent things became confusing.  Both teen's cellphones were found along the side of the roadway, but there was no sign of either teen or the "crashed" vehicle. Abigail was last seen wearing a Carlisle County hoodie and black jeans and Kollier was last seen wearing a gray shirt and gray sweatpants. If you see these teens or have any information of their whereabouts please call  the Carlisle County Sheriff's department at 1-27

LAGOS VIS IMPOUNDS 50 UNROADWORTHY COMMERCIAL VEHICLES IN A SAFETY COMPLIANCE DRIVE. (PHOTOS). #PRESS RELEASE


 In a concerted effort to ensure road safety and regulatory compliance, the Lagos State Vehicle Inspection Service (VIS) conducted a comprehensive enforcement operation on Wednesday targeting unroadworthy vehicles across the state.


The operation which resulted in the seizure of over 50 rickety commercial vehicles, focused on vehicles that failed to meet the prescribed minimum roadworthiness standards as seen in its brakes, wipers, lights, shocks and tyres, as stipulated in the State’s Transport Sector Reform Law, 2018.

During the enforcement exercise which spanned various key locations including Costain, Ikorodu road, Ojuelegba, Yaba, Oyingbo, Ikeja, and Ojodu Berger, the Vehicle Inspection Officers (VIOs) while diligently scrutinising commercial vehicles to ensure compliance with safety regulations also enlightened the drivers on the danger in non-compliance, majority of which was the cause of road accidents.


Debunking the misconceptions about the VIS’s enforcement focus which was said to target more private vehicles, the Director, Vehicle Inspection Services, Engr. Akin-George Fashola explained that roadworthiness compliance is no respecter of particular categories of vehicles. “It is expected to be implemented on all vehicles that ply Lagos roads”, he said.

Despite the professionalism displayed by VIS Officers during the operation, some defiant commercial vehicle drivers resisted being apprehended and in the cause of their unruly behaviour damaged the patrol vans belonging to the VIS Command.


Maintaining that such acts of defiance will not deter the state government from persisting in enforcement efforts until the prevalence of rickety vehicles is significantly reduced, the VIS Director advised all vehicle owners to adopt voluntary compliance with Roadworthiness requirements for the safety of lives and property.

Engr. Fashola further reiterated that the VIS will continue to uphold its commitment to conducting fair and unbiased enforcement drives, urging all vehicle owners and operators to prioritise regular maintenance and adherence to roadworthiness standards to ensure the safety of all road users.
