DEAR EDITOR,
‘On the morning of Friday 28th February 2020, there was an extraordinarily long line of traffic over on the West Bank of the Demerara river and during the time spent in the line, I noticed a black SUV drove up to a Police Inspector who was present there. The occupant(s) of the vehicle spoke with the Inspector, after which a road (shortcut) which is usually blocked off to normal road users such as myself, was opened for the SUV to pass through, thereby avoiding the long line of traffic that existed to get over the bridge. Please note that this is not the first instance in which persons were allowed to by-pass the long lines of traffic since the stoppage of the priority lane. My questions to the Traffic Department therefore are: Has priority passing at the DHB really ceased to exist? Why is it available to some persons but not others?’
