Great speech from the RSLPF. Another speech after an incident by the authorities to be followed by a ‘concerned’ speech by another person in authority and then back to seating and chillin and then another speech and an other speech. NO ACTION. NO PLAN by the authorities to help curb such incidents.
There’s no Beat and patrol .No Traffic patrols in Sf.Lucia.On the Roads In St.Lucia this is really a Disgrace .There are more Supervisor’s and Nothing being Done .Too many highly Educated Supervisor’s .From the 80’s to early 2000 the Rslpf was a top police Force in the Caribbean.All the Dedicated police officers have Retired and now is Highly Educated Men and women and Nothing happening its so bad and sad
America has all the patrols in the world and there’s fatal accidents everyday. Police cannot be everywhere..it is the duty and responsibility of every driver to drive safely and cautiously..no matter where in the world you are…ppl need to stop this nonsense about police patrol and learn to be more responsible…
