Brunei: Police Not Spared From
The Investigation and Traffic Control department of the Royal Brunei Police Force is not biased in enforcing the law, in particular traffic regulations.
According to police statistics, from January 1 to December 24, 2007, a total of 60 police personnel were charged with compounds for road and traffic offences.
Police personnel that were fined included for car modification which is an offence under Regulation 18 (4) 1981 and short spring cases which is an offence under Regulation 11 Road Traffic Regulation 1955.
Nine were fined under the safety belt regulation section 93 of the Traffic Act including police personnel found not fastening their seat belts while on the roads.
Another four cases involved expired road tax.
Other cases included two cases of driving without licence and one case involving tinted glass.
Also, a total of 27 police personnel committed various offences including 21 cases of speeding, and if found guilty will be fined $2,000 for first offenders, or imprisonment up to six months and $4,000 fine for subsequent offenders.
The statistics showed that fines and compounds were slapped against 26 men and seven women personnel aged between 18 and 28; 18 men and one women aged between 29 and 38; six aged between 39 and 48 years and two men aged between 49 and 58 years.
The statistics goes on to show the high level of integrity of the nation's law enforcement institution.
