No more "Traffic Cop Day" in La Paz


La Paz, B.C.S.- Por instrucciones del director de Seguridad y Tránsito Municipal, general Ángel César Amador Soto, mañana 22 de diciembre los oficiales de la corporación no tienen autorización para solicitar apoyos económicos como lo hacían tradicionalmente cada año, al conmemorarse el Día del Agente de Tránsito.

Esta medida ha generado incomodidad entre los uniformados, debido a que se les quita de un plumazo una prerrogativa con la que siempre han contado para llevar regalos a sus familias, además de que se trata de apoyos voluntarios con que la ciudadanía reconoce su labor.

Sin embargo ahora la situación ha cambiado y además, el propio general Amador Soto anuncia que habrá sanciones para los agentes que soliciten ayuda a los automovilistas.

La Paz, BCS - Due to instructions from the director of the Municipal Transit Police, General Ángel César Amador Soto, the officers of the Transit Police do not have authorization to solicit donations tomorrow, December 22, as they have traditionally done each year to commemorate the Day of the Traffic Policeman.

This measure has generated unease among the police, as it has eliminated with the stroke of a pen a means they have always counted upon to provide gifts to their families. Furthermore, these are voluntary donations with which the citizens give recognition for their efforts.

Notwithstanding, now the situation has changed, and moreover, General Amador Soto has announced there will be sanctions for those policemen who solicit donations from motorists.

..of course those who wish to donate voluntarily should feel free to run a stop sign tomorrow.

This is a very good move, the traffic this time of year is terrible and the police on every corner collecting just make it worse.

I guess the officers who came by the house yesterday for "Police Day", armed with flyers, never got that memo!!! Hey, I gave them 100 pesos and know they know who I am. Might save me a ticket some day.
