The FRSC Commercial Driver credential relates to the Federal Road Safety Corps, the Nigerian agency established in February 1988 through Decree No. 45 of 1988, later amended by Decree 35 of 1992 and passed by the National Assembly as the Federal Road Safety Commission (establishment) Act 2007. The Corps describes its mission as reducing road crashes through education, enforcement, and emergency response, and frames its work around four service areas: road safety, driver's licence, vehicle registration, and public education. This study page is for commercial drivers, transport operators, and fleet staff preparing for a road-safety assessment covering those four areas in equal weight: Road Safety, Driver's Licence, Vehicle Registration, and Public Education.
