In observance of their “respect the road” campaign, which was launched on Monday, the Guyana Police Force (GPF)’s Traffic Department announced that 30 newly trained police ranks have been added to the Traffic Department.
The new recruits met with Traffic Chief Superintendent Dennis Stephen, Deputy Superintendent Ramana and other members of staff at Traffic Headquarters on Tuesday. There they were briefed on what their duties are since they will soon be placed on the roadways.
The Traffic Chief noted that the fresh batch of trainees would help in enhancing the traffic department’s campaign and deal with errant drivers who would’ve broken the law. The recruits, he said would be placed mostly in the Georgetown, East Coast, and East Bank of Demerara areas where accidents are a frequent occurrence. This, in an effort to reduce the number of traffic accidents.
