Over 4,300 e-tickets issued to date- Traffic Chief

Months after the new automated electric ticketing system was introduced, a total of 4,330 e-tickets have been issued to date, Traffic Chief Mahendra Singh confirmed on Friday.

The figures were clarified by Singh, hours after Commissioner of Police, Clifton Hicken stated that 889 e-tickets were issued between January and May, 2025.

“Between January and May, 2025, 889 e-tickets were issued through the Safe Road Intelligence Safety System, a reflection of enhanced enforcement and smarter policing,” Hicken said at the Guyana Police Force 186th Anniversary Awards Ceremony held at the Officers’ Mess, Eve Leary.

However, the News Room subsequently engaged Singh and he provided the updated statistics.

The automated system, officially launched on April 7, 2025, currently operates at ten locations. It was developed primarily to monitor speeding. However, it also detects a range of other offences, including tinted windows, coloured lights, and failure to wear seat belts.
The system is calibrated by the Guyana National Bureau of Standards (GNBS) and is supported by recent amendments to the Motor Vehicle and Road Traffic Act, Chapter 51:02.
