This was arrived at, at a consultative meeting held in Lusaka on Friday to discuss the alleged differences between the two institutions.
This was contained in a statement issued to the Sunday Mail and signed by Rae Hamoonga, Acting Police Spokesperson ZPS and Frederick Mubanga, Acting senior Public Relations Manager RTSA.
According to the statement, it was agreed after the discussions that both institutions have the mandate to enforce road traffic rules and regulations.

The two institutions said they remain committed to promoting road safety for the benefit of members of the general public.
