On May 3, 2024, the New Brunswick RCMP’s Tactical Traffic Enforcement Unit and members of the Codiac Regional RCMP conducted a traffic enforcement operation in the Greater Moncton area, resulting in three vehicles being towed.
A total of 118 traffic violations and 23 warnings were issued under the New Brunswick Motor Vehicle Act.
In addition, two individuals were charged with driving with a suspended license.
“Of the 118 traffic violations, a total of 54 were issued for speeding, said Sgt. Ghislain David with the Tactical Traffic Enforcement Unit. Other common infractions included using a cell phone while driving, not wearing a seat belt, not having a current inspection certificate and having an expired registration.”
It is the responsibility of the driver and the registered owner to ensure that all necessary documents are up-to-date.
The public can also assist in keeping dangerous drivers off the road by reporting them to police. If you see a dangerous or a suspected impaired driver, call 911. Your description of the driver, vehicle, licence plate number and direction of travel can assist police in making New Brunswick roads safer.
