The Western Cape Government hosted the graduation ceremony for 133 traffic officers at the Gene Louw Traffic College in Brackenfell on Monday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This marks the culmination of a rigorous 12-month training programme aimed at equipping recruits with the skills and knowledge required to enforce traffic laws, manage incidents and ensure road safety across the province.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The training programme encompassed 30-unit standards as part of the Further Education and Training Certificate (FETC) in Road Traffic Law Enforcement. These standards included critical areas such as the National Road Traffic Act, AARTO, crash-scene management, incident management systems, and anti-corruption practices. Candidate officers also received specialised training in dangerous goods handling, firearms control, tactical stops and approaches, restraining techniques, and ethics and wellness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
They were further introduced to modern traffic technology, such as handheld devices, as part of the province\u2019s commitment to modernising traffic enforcement. To complete their certification, the trainees passed two final integrated summative assessments, conducted by the Road Traffic Management Corporation (RTMC), in November.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Western Cape Mobility Minister Isaac Sileku said these new recruits would be deployed across the province, to bolster law enforcement and ensure safer journeys for all road users.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cThe graduation of these officers is particularly significant as the Western Cape enters the festive season, a time of increased travel and heightened road safety risks. Their training has equipped them with the skills to respond effectively to the challenges of modern traffic law enforcement, especially during the busy festive season. I am confident that their deployment will contribute to safer roads and save lives. Once again I also appeal to our residents and visitors to please work with us and practise responsible road use behaviour to ensure that we and our loved ones all get to our destinations safely.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Western Cape Premier Alan Winde said: \u201cThese provincial traffic officers will go a long way in bolstering our road safety efforts by covering as much of our road network as possible, especially over the festive season. They are so much more than traffic officials, though; they should also see themselves as part of our broader safety and security network, where they too play an important part in keeping communities safe from crime. As hard as these women and men will be working to keep all road users safe, motorists and pedestrians also need to be aware of their role and responsibilities. Please behave responsibly on the roads. Let us all make sure we reach our destinations safely.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
