<p>This abstract would have been good for an oral presentation, but the methods, &nbsp;results, and conclusion are a bit deficient.</p><p>In the methods section, it would have been more informative to have the injuries classified as severe and non-severe, and the outcome as fatal and non-fatal, as laid out and described in the background</p><p>In the result section, a lot of figures were presented with little to describe the severity of injury and fatality, which would have summarised the information on the significance and burden of RTAs better.</p><p>Also, I can see that the author collected additional information (such as the time of the accident, time of presentation, types of vehicle, age, and sex) about the RTA beyond the types and sites of injuries. It would have been nice to have done a more detailed analysis to know the association between these factors (i.e. time of the accident, type of vehicle, age, sex) and the severity, and fatality of the RTA.</p><p><strong>&nbsp;</strong>I can not see anything in this abstract to warrant arriving at this conclusion-<strong>''therefore practices of strict road safety measures and appropriate use of roads should be strengthened''. </strong>There is no part of this write-up that showed poor practices of strict road measures and inappropriate use of roads are the underlying factors associated with RTAs in the study area.</p>
