Summary: | A dissertation submitted to the the Faculty of Arts in fulfilment of requirements of the degree of Master of Arts in the Department of Criminal Justice at the University of Zululand, South Africa, 1995. === This research aims at investigating the image of traffic
policing in Transkei. To achieve this goal, questionnaires
were distributed to a purposive sample of 600 respondents.
Five towns whose people are exposed to traffic policing were
targeted, namely: Umtata, Butterworth, Engcobo, Qumbu and
Libode. The researcher personally collected the questionnaires.
A total of five hundred completed questionnaires were
collected. To achieve reliable results, Chi-square, F-test
and t-test have been implemented to test for significant differences.
The attitudes of the respondents have been measured with
regard to two traffic institutions in Transkei, namely:
Municipal and Provincial traffic institutions. Traffic order
cannot be achieved in Transkei if a sound partnership between
the traffic police and the public is lacking.
