The Sint Maarten Police (KPSM) would like to inform the public of recent operations carried out by Bike Patrol personnel in the Philipsburg area. Over the past week, officers were visible along Front Street, Boardwalk and Back Street, taking strong action on nuisance parking.
The main objective of these operations was to resolve the problem of illegally parked vehicles and scooter riders, which are causing concern in the region. During the week, officers checked 80 vehicles in total. As a result of these efforts, 37 fines were issued to people who violated parking rules.
In addition to addressing parking violations, officers questioned 15 drivers regarding tinted windows on their vehicles. The discussion aimed to raise awareness of relevant regulations regarding vehicle windows.
“We would like to take this opportunity to ask for the public's cooperation in avoiding parking or leaving their vehicles in the Kanaal-Steeg, located in the immediate vicinity of the prosecutor's office, and along the promenade. We noted that this practice caused traffic jams and inconvenience in the sector,” underlines the KPSM spokesperson.
Bike Patrol officers will continue to take action against this illegal practice in the coming days. KPSM is committed to ensuring the safety and well-being of all who reside in or visit Sint Maarten. “Your cooperation is invaluable in helping us maintain order on our streets.”
