ROAD PIRATES, beware; the Ministry of Transport and Works (MTW) is utilizing technology to catch you.
The Barbados Licensing Authority yesterday launched a mobile application (app) designed to track road users, in association with BlackBerry and Digicel.
“This app will help us track down road pirates who operate on the roads with fake licence plates,”?Minister of Transport Michael Lashley said at the ministry’s Pine headquarters.
“It is too easy now for a person to buy a car for $2 000, go into a garage or at home and get some plates put on, and go out and go and commit some of the worst crimes in Barbados – then push the car at the side of the road and go along their business,” he said. (CA)
