Recruitment drive for Trafpol
Discussion
Theres a recruitment drive for Trafpols at the moment and as a result we are getting a lot more into the 'white caps'.
Sadly tho, there is a down side.
These people are not skilled, many are not Advanced drivers/Motorcyclists/Vehicle examiners etc and because there are so many.......it could be years before they are fully trained.
Still, its a move in the right direction though.

Hello Street.
Sad thing is that just about all the people who have left the Unit, either by choice or the dreaded tenure policy that recently existed....would not return to Traffic Policing at any cost.
Theres a lot of experienced ex Trafpols now knocking on doors and reporting domestics etc.

For once - Liebchen

We want proper ones not pretend ones.

I had an experinced and qualified Trafpol in my kitchen a couple of months ago. Taking a statement for a making off, he mentioned he was taken off traffic duties because of age. He also mentioned that alot of Trafpol today have NO driving qualifications.
