The Liberia National Police (LNP), through its Public Safety Department, has commenced a training program for instructors of driving schools in Monrovia and its environs. The initiative aims to enhance road safety by strengthening the capacity of instructors responsible for training new drivers.
In a release issued on Sunday, April 5, 2026, Police Spokesman Sam Collins said the first engagement was held over the weekend at the Headquarters of the Liberia National Police, bringing together representatives from various driving schools across the capital.
Speaking at the session, Chief of Public Safety, Deputy Commissioner of Police (DCP) Fred M. Gaye, emphasized the importance of the initiative: “We are engaging driving schools to train their instructors in the Rules of the Road so that they will be better equipped to effectively train their students on these important principles. Upon completion, instructors will be certified.”
