ABSTRACT
The principal aim of this project is to contribute its quota to development of converted automobiles to ultimately serve intended purposes, protect lives and properties absolutely against liquefied petroleum gas related accidents and to update knowledge and practice on Technology for accelerated development of the Ho Municipality, enhance policy analysis by Driver and Vehicle Licensing Authority and serve as a contribution to nation building. Random sample size of 212 converted automobiles representing 12.08% of the total 1,755 targeted population was deemed fit and utilized for generalization of analysis. Deplorable states and unavailability of some expected components and features, use of domestic cylinders and longitudinal mountings of fuel containers in boots, were some of the major findings. Virtually, no suffocation preventive means to protect health against fumes of fuel were made. Electrical wiring harness, connections and the use of fusible links to safeguard circuits had been seriously abused. It is imperative and cannot be over emphasized that concerted efforts be made to update converted liquefied petroleum gas automobiles in the Ho Municipality to meet Modern Developmental and International Safety Standards, so as to save lives and properties and give way to accelerated development of the city regardless of the cost factors.
