Traffic enforcers are government agency employees tasked with controlling and managing traffic flow on the roads. They use hand signals, whistles, and sometimes even traffic lights to guide drivers and pedestrians safely through the hustle of traffic.
They make sure cars stop when they’re supposed to, pedestrians cross at the right time, and everyone follows the rules. This helps prevent accidents and keeps us all out of harm’s way and keeps everyone safe.
Traffic employees are also authorized to apprehend vehicle drivers and motorists who commit traffic violations and issue violations to the offenders.
