The Madina Divisional MTTU Deputy Police Commander, DSP Mr. Charles Ahiamale Wednesday educated passengers waiting to board vehicles at the Madina station on motor-traffic regulations.
Commander Ahiamale told the passengers that, due to the constructional work going on at the Madina Zongo junction, buses would not be allowed to use the junction as their Station until further notice.
He cautioned that any trotro found around the area would be clamped and the driver arrested and prosecuted. He therefore advised the passengers to go to the Madina VRA Lorry Station to board their vehicles.
The Deputy MTTU Commander said last Tuesday for instance, recalcitrant drivers parked their vehicles at the junction to pick passengers and when they saw the police they quickly took off.
He said in the rush a woman who was about to board a vehicle was caught handing on the bus and she fell off.
DSP Ahiamle said though she did not sustain any serious injuries, she lost her hand bag.
He appealed to the general public to bear with the situation, adding that, their safety was paramount.
He urged the public to report to the nearest police any driver found drunk and blamed some of the road accidents on driver's lack of carefulness and impatience.
Commander Ahiamale urged the drivers to maintain some distance from the vehicles ahead of them and cautioned passengers not to detract the drivers.
