  "summary": "The Police Motor Traffic and Transport Department (MTTD) is addressing complaints received within the first seven days of implementing the new automated traffic enforcement system, including concerns over trade licence plates, untransferred vehicle ownership, and data discrepancies. Assistant Commissioner of Police (ACP) Alexander Kwaku Obeng, the Director of Education, Research and Training at the MTTD, stated that authorities are handling all the complaints submitted so far. Obeng identified the misuse of trade licence plates as one of the major issues emerging from the enforcement exercise, noting that registered vehicle dealers can acquire trade licence plates for trading purposes but remain responsible for any traffic violations recorded against vehicles using them.",
