**Off-Peak Travel:** To minimize travel time due to Lagos' notorious traffic, aim to travel early in the morning (before 6:30 AM) or late in the evening (after 7:00 PM) on weekdays.

**Cash is King:** Always have smaller denominations of Naira notes (₦100, ₦200, ₦500) as bus conductors often claim not to have change for large bills.

**Confirm Destination:** Before boarding any bus, explicitly confirm the destination with the conductor to avoid boarding the wrong vehicle.

**Watch Your Belongings:** Be vigilant, especially in crowded bus stops and while boarding/alighting, to prevent petty theft.

**Safety First:** If traveling late, consider using ride-hailing services for the final leg if you feel unsafe taking a Keke or walking.
