WILLEMSTAD – All police recruits from the BPO-2025-I training class successfully completed their traffic enforcement competency examination on October 6, 2026, marking an important milestone in the final phase of their professional training.

With the examination completed, the recruits are now prepared to begin applying their training in traffic enforcement, helping ensure that motorists comply with Curaçao's traffic laws and regulations.
The achievement represents another step in preparing a new generation of police officers to contribute to public safety and traffic enforcement across the island.
