On Thursday, November 12, 2026, at the British Council in Accra, Director‑General of the National Road Safety Authority (NRSA), Abraham Amaliba, cautioned that road safety should not be sacrificed as Ghana embraces emerging mobility solutions, including motorcycle ride‑hailing.
Amaliba said the introduction of new transport services must be paired with responsible road use, sustained public education and stronger collaboration among transport operators, regulators and other stakeholders to reduce road crashes and protect lives.
He highlighted that road safety is a shared responsibility, especially as commercial motorcycle transportation becomes an increasingly prominent feature of urban mobility. He urged motorists, commercial motorcycle riders, passengers and pedestrians to play their part in promoting safer roads, stressing the need for greater compliance with traffic regulations and responsible road behaviour.
The remarks came ahead of the launch of Uber Moto, the company’s motorcycle ride‑hailing service, which was unveiled by Amaliba alongside Iddisah Seidu Yeboah, Deputy Chief Executive Officer in charge of Operations at the Driver and Vehicle Licensing Authority (DVLA).
Uber Ghana Country Manager, Jada Badu, reflected on the company’s ten years in Ghana, noting that the launch of Uber Moto would further reimagine how people move and create new economic opportunities through technology.
During the summit, DSP Wari Skube, a Divisional Commander of the Ghana Police Service, also addressed road safety education, enforcement and responsible driving and riding.
As part of the anniversary celebrations, Uber recognised ten drivers for their dedication and contribution to the company’s operations in Ghana.
