The Commissioner Will Dimanche Director of Traffic service and Traffic Police this week announced new measures to facilitate traffic and pedestrian traffic on the sidewalks of the Capital.

"[...] we started to pick up the carcasses of vehicles, to dislodge stations [of vehicles] anarchic in the metropolitan area. e are fighting with the merchant to facilitate pedestrian traffic, which is under the responsibility of the traffic also.

[...] we have of new measures that we must take at the level of traffic service [...] we had a series of contraventions which did not need to recycle (retraining) [attend courses of the highway code], now for some tickets, we will require retraining. For example a bad parking, that gives us the most problems at the level of traffic service, we will punish these drivers and we will send to recycling.

In addition, the Office of Insurance Against Third Vehicles (OAVCT) [...] now requires that vehicles with license plate Dominican circulating in the country, have an insurance OAVCT, for these vehicles are allowed to move on the territory of Haiti. At the border these vehicles will receive a permit of movement for one week. If people stay longer than a week, they will go to the office of traffic, to register their vehicle.

We've added a package of measures for towing, in the area of ​​Petion-ville. For example, all the corners were painted yellow, if the traffic service found a vehicle parked on the yellow lines is that you do not know your highway code, the traffic police will give you a ticket and send you to recycle. We will not tow vehicles, contrary to what you think, because we put restrictions on towing, but the traffic police will take a photo of the vehicle and have the right to withdraw the license plate of the vehicle. It is true that is no towing for the vehicles making a bad stop, there will be always towing [...] for example, if your vehicle breaks down in the middle of the road, any tug will come to tow it and carry it to the traffic service, which will ensure that the person, the owner of the vehicle, will pay this towing [...] at the level of vehicles in poor condition [...] for the year 2012, we withdrew 3.183 vehicles off the road, we gave a ticket, removed the plate, took the driver's license and we send them to repair their vehicle..."
