The Motor Traffic and Transport Department (MTTD) in the Ahafo Region has ramped up public awareness about the rollout of Traffitech-GH, engaging commercial drivers and riders in Mim to bolster road safety and ensure adherence to traffic rules. The campaign gathered commercial drivers, motorcycle operators (pragia), tricycle operators (aboboyaa), and okada riders to enlighten them about the novel system and adjustments to traffic laws.

During an interview with Adom News, the Ahafo Regional MTTD Commander, Superintendent Ekow Gaisie, highlighted the sweeping reforms accompanying Traffitech-GH and the new Legislative Instrument (LI), particularly changes pertaining to licensing. He emphasized the critical need for transport operators to grasp the new prerequisites and adhere to them, as this would safeguard drivers, riders, passengers, and pedestrians alike.

Nana James Ahotor, the Mim GPRTU Secretary, and Osman Seidu, the Mim Pragia Chairman, who took part in the exercise, lauded the MTTD for the move. They expressed confidence that the new LI and Traffitech-GH system would curb road accidents and resolve other issues within the transport industry. They implored their peers to take the education seriously and comply with the regulations to heighten road safety.
