The Western Cape Mobility MEC has distributed a fleet of luxury BMWs to three municipalities in order to enhance traffic law enforcement and promote road safety. Despite opposition criticism, the MEC defends the choice, citing the advanced invehicle technology, such as license plate recognition cameras, that the BMWs possess, making them potent tools in fighting crime and increasing road safety. The BMWs are specialized vehicles adapted and optimized for traffic law enforcement and will be deployed throughout the province, augmenting officers’ effectiveness in promoting safety and reducing road crash fatalities.
