Police issued ten fixed penalty notices to drivers and passengers for failing to wear seatbelts during a traffic exercise yesterday.
Officers of the Maloney Police Station conducted a roving traffic operation on Monday December 1st 2025 within the district. During the exercise, officers completed eight stop-and-search forms and issued ten fixed penalty notices — all related to failure to wear seatbelts (seven drivers and three passengers).
The operation was spearheaded by ACP Singh, Snr Supt Maynard-Wilson, Supt McKenzie, ASP Morales, ASP Ablacksingh, and ASP Pierre, and was coordinated by Cpl Forgenie.
The TTPS reminds the motoring public that failing to wear a seatbelt while a vehicle is in motion is an offence and can result in a $1,000 fine. Seatbelts are critical for the safety of both drivers and passengers in the event of an accident.
