The GNR Coimbra traffic squad, which patrols IP3 and IC8 (both with serious accidents), operates with only one vehicle. The spate of breakdowns means that at least six patrol cars are “parked” awaiting repairs.
ABOUT CM determined that the situation had been going on for over a week and that the only vehicle available for crash response and patrol was the unit commander’s vehicle. The military must organize itself to be able to maintain a minimum level of combat capability. In addition to IP3 and IC8, where crashes resulting in deaths and injuries are common, the military patrols dozens of secondary roads.
Contacted CMthe GNR limited itself to stating that “it has a responsibility to use resources efficiently, mitigate possible logistical constraints, and that ongoing operational activities will not be compromised.” “The GNR will support the necessary actions and careful planning, taking into account needs and resources,” he concluded.
