The People’s National Congress Reform is calling on the Police Traffic Department to institute immediate measures to stop the recklessness on the roadways. At it’s weekly press briefing the Party stated that the Police need to institute an on going education awareness program for all Guyanese, particularly drivers. The requirements for the issuing of Drivers’ license need to be tightened with compulsory retesting for renewals, the party added. The PNCR is alarmed at the traffic statistics. In the period, up to 23rd September 2010, there were 77 accidents with 80 deaths; five were children. During the same period last year 71 accidents were recorded resulting in 82 deaths; 12 were children. The Party queWhen will the Administration stop engaging in useless diversionary antics and demonstrate to the citizens of Guyana that they accept their responsibility to ensure that our roads are made safe once more?
