During the year 2012, Dutch police
staff were involved in 9,358 traffic accidents. This number is only one hundred
less than in 2011. Only in 1,800 cases, were police not the guilty party. On
the average, every Dutch police car is involved in one accident a year. Since
2011, all police staff have to participate in driving instruction. Police admit
however, that its impact has not yet been great. The police invest heavily in
this training. The ACP trade union of the police says that there is little time
for training, fewer police agents continuously receive more tasks. This leads
to less time for training - including training to improve their shooting ability.
