Another avenue for corruption in the Police force is in the offing. A Ghanaian Police man issuing spot fine? And what makes the Government believe that these fines will be channelled through the court system instead of the Police lining their pockets with bribes?

Thanks Asamoah... I was going to explain it to those who think the police are up to make more money. Rather it diminishes their ability to pocket monies, especially if the fines are pre-determined to match specific offence. So that the officer can not decide on his own to fine you 100 cedis if the required fine for that offence is 50 cedis. Plus the fine will paid directly at the bank. The only way the police can abuse the system is to harass drivers by wasting their time unnecessarily. In which case drivers may be tempted to just pay them off so that they can move on.

You are joking if you believe what you are saying.

Let's look at this scenario even if the program is implemented as you are saying. Let's assume an infraction of not having an insurance attracts on the spot fine of 100 Ghana cedis and a driver is caught without insurance.

The Driver will be willing to pay 20 Ghana cedis to the Policeman or Policewoman in lieu of getting the 100 cedis ticket, so whether it is the Policeman collecting it on the spot or the Driver paying it at the Bank, the Police force is the only beneficiary in this.

What do think BRIBERY by the Police is?, A Church Donation or Charitable Contribution? The Police have been 'Practising 'SPOT FINE' since the
timw of Adam, except ALL was going into their Pockets.

And we are now saying that we will wake up one of these days and ALL they collect will be paid to Government chest? The needs they FULFILLED with Bribe Money will no longer be there when the CUSTOMS, IMMIGRATION and Officials of other State Institutions continue to LAUGH ALL THE WAY TO THE BANK every month?

Ghanaians, let's be for REAL for once. Until MAHAMA stops the ROT in his Govt and by his CRONIES, any Policeman will be a DAMNED FOOL to sacrifice his children's comfort on the ALTER of Spot Fine.

Your GUESS is as GOOD as MINE.

We have NOT BEEN ABLE to do a SINGLE THING RIGHT as a Nation. NOTHING in Ghana is CORRUPTION FREE. Everything is INFESTED to the CORE all the WAY to the TOP of every institution. When we are not PROSECUTING Big TAKERS like Woyome, Alhaji Imoro, etc, you think the Police will have anything to FEAR in converting spot fine to their use? Ours is a SAD CASE of a SELF IMPOSED CURSE.

Why we want to believe that SPOT FINE is a PANACEA to our myriad of Corruptionrelated problems within the Police Service defines us as a People.

Just a few weeks ago the Top hierarchy of police recruitment was knee deep in Corruption in recruitment. The DUST is yet to settle and we are making SILLY NOISES about SPOT FINE.

Indeed, ARE WE FOR REAL?

Spot fines to be imposed and collected by the Police?What role are they going to play:prosecutors,lawyers,judges and cashiers combo?By jove!
A police officer only issues citations for drivers to go to court and plead their cases in front of judges.
The judges can throw out the citation,caution a driver,impose a fine or advise the licensing authority to suspend the driver's license.This is tantamount to unauthorized practice of law.The GBA should fiercely oppose it.Police officers CANNOT usurp the functions of prosecutors and judges.
It is like asking a cat to keep watch over a mouse.Not a thumbs up idea.

This is a very good idea but the fine should not be paid on the spot, as is done in the US...the policeman will pull you over, explain why he stopped you and then issue you a ticket fine for the specific offense. With your driver's license and insurance in his hands(which you have to provide ), you have to either sign or refuse to sign the citation...you can sign and agree to pay or refuse to pay and go to court to plead your case....if you agree to pay, you have 15 days to pay if not within the 15 days the fine will increase...if you don't pay within certain time, a warrant will be issued for your arrest and prosecuted.. if you are willing to pay, you either use check or money order...no cash..and you pay into the central revenue and NOT to the police officer on the spot...this is how it works in the States

One day, a Man was filling his gas tank at Sarpong Gas Station in Nima; he filled the tank so full that gasoline got on his shirt sleeve; unaware that there was gasoline on his sleeve, he lit a cigarette and his sleeve caught fire, so he jumped into his car, waved his arm up and down in an effort to put out the flames. He looked into his rear view mirror and saw red, white and blue lights flashing and heard a police siren; the Policeman pulled him over, got out of his Patrol Car, and arrested the driver for having and illegal Firearm.

A POLICE MAN CATCHES A MOTORIST OFFNDER AND THREATENS TO ISSUE A SPOT FINE Of SAY GHc5. THE TRAFFIC OFFENDER GIVES A BACKHAND OF SAY GH2.00 TO THE POLICE MAN INSTEAD OF THE GHc5.00 FIXED PENALTY. THE TRAFFIC OFFENDER SAVES GH3.00, THE POLICE MAN GETS A COOL GHc2.00 IN HIS POCKET.

IF THIS OFFENCE WAS COMMITTED BY OTHERS TEN TIMES A DAY UNDER THE NOSE OF THE SAME POLICE MAN, THE POLICE MAN THEN TAKES HOME A COOL GHc20.00 AND THE TRAFFIC OFFENDER SAVES GHc30.00 PER DAY.

MULTIPLY THIS BY THE NUMBER OF OCCASIONS PER DAY THROUGHOUT GHANA, AND THE POLICE WILL BE LAUGHING AT DUMMY PRESIDENT MAHAMA ALL THE WAY TO THE BANK.

THIS SCENARIO HAS BEEN GOING ON SINCE GHANA'S INDEPENDENCE FROM COLONIAL RULE.

THAT'S WHY POLICE MEN IN GHANA ARE AS RICH AS CUSTOME OFFICIALS AT GHANA'S PORTS, PARTICULARLY TEMA PORT.

SO YOU SEE HOW DUMMY PRESIDENT MAHAMA IS TO HAVE ALLOWED GHANA POLICE TO ROLL OUT THIS CORRUPT POLICY DESIGNED TO FURTHER ENRICH THE POLICE.

MEANWHILE, THE BOSS WILL BE WAITING FOR HIS DAILY SHARE FROM HIS SUBORDINATE ON THE BEAT, SO THE SORBORDINATE WILL IMPLEMENT THIS AGGRESSIVELY ON OUR ROADS TO ENSURE HE MAKES MUCH MONEY FOR HIMSELF, HIS BOSS AND OTHERS AT THE MTTU.

THIS PRACTICE HAS BEEN GOING ON IN GHANA FOR A LONG TIME. WHO LOSES?

FUCKING PRESIDENT MAHAMA LOSES FOR ALLOWING ALL IN GHANA TO HAVE THEIR WAY.EVERY FUCKING PERSON IN AUTHORITY IN GHANA IS DOING ANYTHING TO GET RICH QUICK, SO NO ONE IS ACTUALLY WORKING FOR THE MONTHLY SALARY AND ALLOWANCES THEY GET PAID BY GHANA'S TAX PAYER.

GHANA IS A FUCKING COUNTRY TO LIVE IN AND WORK.

WHAT A FIELD DAY FOR GHANA POLICE!!!

The system is good but the issue is trust. In the United States where this system works perfectly because of its structure, the driver can go to court to defend if there was any form of unfair treatment or misconduct by the officer who issued the ticket and the fine could be either waived or most of the times, reduced. The monies amount to millions of dollars for each county each month and used to implement good stuffs: can Ghana do same or corrupt it with bribes and favourtism? I don't trust Ghana leaders at all and at all cost. They have to build some data base in place where no one can erase or alter the records of the drivers before this system. Foundation first, Ghana leaders.

All to fully understand especially drivers to only pay what fine is related to what particular offence but not pro rata base.
Each fine for a specific offence. These should be made public and as part of the education problem.
Sticker on vehicle of fine. Remove sticker after payment to avoid arrest by several officers for same offence.
Creat a monitoring system made up of a few persons from various traffic safety departments.
Police alone should not be at spot fine spots but be with other departments as stipulated above.
Police should not collect the fines but allow a financial department to do that with police only providing security..this will save d image of d already tanished image.
Those involve to have a special banner or arm ban to displace un official officers collecting fines.
Those to be involved to wear audited name tags embossed on their top uniform,
In future creat specific spot fine points with time frame to avoid officers harrassing drivers anywhere at any time.
In future mount CCTV at these specific points of collection for monitoring.
Creat a common data base for all registered vehicles to enable for a common point of quick reference.
Need for monitoring equipment like pagers installed in monitoring vehicles and on officers to detect faulty drivers and vehicles. More suggestions in future.These may assist reduction in doubts about the future spot fine programm. Tnks.
