This tells you why Ghana can`t move forward. Akans police are too many on the street collecting bribes. So the prosecution will be small in number. Why 4000 instead of 40,000-100,000? A law disobedient people like Akans, wherever they are people will be in trouble. That is why Ghanaians are suffering today. Corruption after corruption. stealing after stealing.

I think prosecution is not enough for the recklessness on the part of some drivers, some need to be banned forever and prosecuted in addition as its done in most developed countries. Drivers kill and maimed people and some get away with it because some of the cars the drivers drive belong to people in authority, police men, judges,politicians, CEOS, and people, outside the country so they are able to bribe people and get away with it.

What Police need to do is try to prove they do not take bribes. And they need support of the public to refuse to give it to them.Expose them to the media. Everybody in Ghana, I may say has a cellphone with camera. As it is said picture worth a thousand words.Let "If you see something say something" It takes one, two and all of us to break the back of corruption. All of us are corrupt and are either Christians or Muslems. It is against all teachings. Let us all together do something about this. Let the police start cleaning their house and all laws will be held agaist the rest civil servants. I guess the have to be called Public Sevnts

I wished I could see the records of the number of policemen who took bribes from the other drivers who, the police chose not to send to court. Equally interesting will be the number of incidences. Thieves!

The figure should have been 4 million. I don't call Ghanaian drivers "PROPER DRIVERS" Both the person and the vehicle are no starters
