This was a result of Lae Traffic police intercepting two drivers’ fake licenses and PMV drivers’ permits.
In a statement, Lae Metropolitan Superintendent, Anthony Wagambie Jnr, said: “Lae Traffic Police and Road Safety officers were conducting random roadblocks, checking drivers' licences, unroadworthy vehicles and registration, when they came across two PMVs, of whom the drivers had a fake licence and permits”.
He says at first glance, the licence looks exactly like the ones being issued by the Traffic Registry.
