Police have said they will continue to impound buses whose drivers are contravening the road service license.
In a statement to ZANIS today, Zambia Police Deputy Public Relations Officer Charity Chanda says the operation to impound buses was being done to bring sanity on roads to avoid unnecessary accidents that lead to injuries, damage to property, and loss of lives.
Ms Chanda said for this reason police traffic officers countrywide have been directed to intensify operations with the view of impounding mini buses whose drivers are picking and dropping off passengers at undesignated areas.
Ms Chanda said police have learnt with dismay that some political leaders are inciting minibus drivers to contravene the Road Service license.
The Deputy Public Relations officer thus cautioned that any person inciting drivers to violate the law will be dealt with in accordance with the provisions of the Law.
She stated that no form of intimidation or harassment to the officers will deter them from performing their duties as police officers.
Ms Chanda has since appealed to members of the public to report any bus driver contravening to the nearest police station or call 0979180007 or 991.
