Traffic enforcement and control on highways is shifting to the Gendarmerie.
The Ministry of Interior will implement a regulatory change that will remove police from highway enforcement.
The new traffic regulation prepared by the Ministry of Interior will be announced to the public in the coming days.
GENDARMERIE INSTEAD OF POLICE
According to a report by Toygun Atilla from Patronlar Dünyası, there will no longer be police on highways under this regulation. Gendarmerie teams will carry out traffic and enforcement duties throughout the country.
Under the current regulation, police were responsible for areas where traffic police were absent or insufficient, while the Gendarmerie operated in areas outside the jurisdiction of the police and traffic organization.
