Traffic offenders to receive fines by SMS as Police begin camera-based enforcement starting October 1
The Ghana Police Service begins full rollout of TRAFFITECH-GH on 1 October 2026, using cameras and PDA devices to detect offences and issue fines by SMS.
Starting October 1, 2026, the Ghana Police Service will implement an automated traffic law enforcement program, TRAFFITECH-GH, to address road indiscipline and improve compliance with road traffic laws. The program, run through the Motor Traffic and Transport Department, will use cameras and Personal Data Assistant devices to detect traffic violations.
Upon detection, Electronic Notices of Violation will be sent to vehicle owners or drivers by SMS, detailing the offense committed and the corresponding fine. The police urge motorists, drivers, and owners to obey road regulations and support the launch of the program, which aims to promote safer roads and lower crash and casualty rates.
Deputy Superintendent of Police Richmond Mensah, representing the Service, directed the public to an online link for additional program information.
