The Manila North Tollways Corp. announced that high technology has again enhanced the enforcement capability of North Luzon Expressway and Subic-Clark-Tarlac Expressway enforcers.
The MNTC, concessionaire of the NLEX and SCTEX, has introduced body and dashboard cameras to better document interactions between traffic enforcers and motorists.
“When a tollway enforcer approaches you, be on alert as he wears a built-in camera like it is part of his or her uniform. The enforcer’s vehicle also sports a dashboard camera,” MNTC chief operating officer Raul Ignacio warned.
Ignacio explained that the body-hugging cameras will ensure the accuracy of incident reports and provide evidence for investigations.
“The use of body cameras will further ensure that motorists are properly served by NLEX-SCTEX traffic enforcers during apprehensions,” Ignacio added.
Tollways Management Corp. president Roberto Bontia also said that dashboard cameras have been installed in NLEX-SCTEX patrol vehicles to record events inside and outside the vehicles to help patrol officers implement traffic laws on the integrated expressway.
The NLEX-SCTEX traffic enforcers have started wearing body cameras when apprehending traffic violators to advance operational efficiency and transparency.
