Kaieteur News column distinguishes traffic anecdote from weekday police work
A Dem Boys Seh column published by Kaieteur News on Sept. 27, 2026, uses a traffic anecdote to illustrate rule-breaking, then describes weekday morning and afternoon traffic duty on the East Bank and East Coast Public Roads. It says police can sometimes seem absent, but gives no measure of how often that occurs or evidence that more strategic visibility would prevent gridlock.

Kaieteur News’ Sept. 27, 2026, Dem Boys Seh column uses an anecdote about a driver stuck while surrounding traffic moves to illustrate its concern about motorists disregarding road rules. The episode is distinct from the column’s broader account: it does not establish how often drivers break rules or police are absent.
The column says the East Bank and East Coast Public Roads carry thousands of vehicles on weekday mornings and afternoons, when traffic authorities are out directing vehicles. It also says police can sometimes seem absent when motorists need them. The column proposes greater visibility at strategic points as a way that could prevent indiscipline from becoming gridlock, but provides no measure of the gaps or evidence that the proposed response works. It acknowledges that traffic management is imperfect and calls for better enforcement, planning and management.
