Our traffic police are not clean
handed. This doesn’t mean all traffic police are corrupt. There are many
ethical and professional and country-loving traffic police as opposed to the
corrupt ones. I have been traveling from Addis to the South region and back to
Addis many times. It is a very common practice for the drivers to give Birr 50 or 100 to the traffic police to have a ‘safe’ pass besides overloading passengers,missing
dispatch paper(‘mewicha’),driving above the speed limit, driving a technically
deficient car, overpricing the transportation fee above the tariff,etc. These
faults of the driver are ignored as seen in return to the Birr 50 or 100 bribe.The
drivers have told me that the traffic police do collect the money from each
public transport car. What an ashaming practice! If our law enforcement organs
are corrupt, then who can enforce the law? Will these corrupt ones will enforce
it? No. A serious measure has to be taken on this problem. Let you share us
your opinions on what measure should be taken to get rid of this problem.
