Inspector General of Police Joseph Boinnet has cautioned VIP drivers to observe traffic rules while on duty.
All officers on VIP security duties have therefore been instructed to stop this behavior forthwith; must therefore follow the highway code and obey the traffic law just like other Motorists. 5/5

This warning was sparked by Friday morning incident where a rogue VIP driver hit a motorist and sped off.
“Some of these officers have in the past been engaging in reckless behavior & have been harassing other Motorists in the name of allowing their VIPs quick passage.” Observed Boinnet.
