The Ghana Police Service has warned motorists that officers will continue to arrest drivers and impound vehicles found to be in violation of road traffic regulations, despite the introduction of the automated TraffiTech-GH speed enforcement system.
Assistant Commissioner of Police ACP; Alexander Kwaku Obeng disclosed that roadside policing operations remain active alongside the automated system, stressing that officers will continue to enforce traffic laws and take action against motorists who flout the regulations.
The enforcement exercise will target several offences, including the use of unauthorised tinted glass, driving without a valid licence, riding motorcycles without approved helmets, and the unauthorised use of sirens.
Other roadside violations will also attract police attention, with officers authorised to arrest offenders and impound vehicles where necessary.
ACP Obeng further indicated that motorists found committing such offences would be processed for court in accordance with the law.
The Police have therefore urged motorists to comply with road traffic regulations, ensure their vehicles meet the required standards and carry valid driving licences to avoid arrest, prosecution and possible vehicle impoundment.
The warning comes as Ghana continues to strengthen road traffic enforcement through a combination of physical police operations and technology-driven monitoring.
