In the past three administrations, PTI Bahamas has made significant efforts to implement a comprehensive Vehicle Inspection Program across the country, with four stations in Nassau, two in Grand Bahama, and one in each of the more populated islands. Unfortunately, the proposal faced obstacles during the last failed Minnis Administration, where the Minister of Transport (Wells) favoured senior party members who gained access to the proposal. The original proposal went missing during the election campaign when it was handed to Brensle Rolle and Frankie Cambell; Cambell became Traffic Minister for a few months under the new Minnis Administration. Recently, under the Davis Administration, the current Transport and Housing Minister, JoBeth Coleby-Davis, met with our team and promised to stay in touch if there were any changes in the government's decision on the proposal. However, she also advised us not to keep our hopes up due to others showing interest. Based on our experience, it appears that the current government led by the Brave/Cheaster Combo, known as the "New Day Government," is simply a continuation of the same corrupt and nepotistic administrations of the past. Meanwhile, our Vehicle Inspection Program proposal still awaits approval and implementation.
When it comes to road safety, both drivers and pedestrians face a variety of challenges and risks.
- Unfortunately, most vehicles imported as 'cheap' transport are scraps from other countries, "repaired" in the Bahamas (taxed) and then sold to unsuspecting buyers as reliable transportation, putting them in danger without their knowledge.
- Furthermore, oversize trucks lack proper safety features such as reflectors and warning devices when disabled at night.
- Additionally, a concerning trend of rejected, outdated, reused, and re-threaded tires being sold as new threatens everyone on the road.

As a responsible driver, adhering to basic safety standards and using common sense while on the road is important. A car with bald tires, a misaligned headlight, or faulty brakes threatens public safety. While the police may attribute accidents to speeding, their means of determining the causes are limited to a tape measure and flashlight. A motor vehicle is a complex machine with serviceable parts, and it's crucial to refer to the service manual for maintenance guidelines. Surprisingly, we haven't seen more lawsuits resulting from accidents caused by neglected safety measures, as up to 70% of vehicles on the road are deemed unroadworthy and would fail a basic 16-point inspection. When driving with a misaligned headlight and hitting a pedestrian at night, it's easy to claim, "I didn't see them." However, the real issue lies in the misaligned headlight or lack of maintenance over the course of 20 years.
Over the course of the past three administrations, PTI Bahamas has undertaken significant efforts to establish a comprehensive Vehicle Inspection Program across the nation, with four stations in Nassau, two in Grand Bahama, and one in each of the more densely populated islands. Unfortunately, the proposal faced major obstacles during the previous administration under Minnis, wherein the then-Minister of Transport (Wells) favoured senior party members who gained access to the proposal. The original proposal went missing during the election campaign when it was handed to Brensle Rolle and Frankie Cambell; Cambell briefly became Traffic Minister under the new Minnis Administration and unfortunately, continued with the same culture of pettiness, spitefulness, and corruption that has hindered the country's development.

Bahamians have a long history of struggling against oppression, from the days of slavery to the present times. Despite their enduring hardships and contributions to society, they continue to be subjected to economic burdens and taxation without much recognition or concern. Unfortunately, this exploitation of Bahamians remains prevalent today and is often a lucrative practice for some.

The Bahamian people should not be forced to be controlled by the darkness of the homosexual movement. As a Muslim, I believe that I have the right to take on a second wife, as my religion permits me and over a billion other Muslims worldwide. However, I also believe that this right should not be imposed on others who do not share my beliefs. Ultimately, the decision of whether or not to have Bahamians comply with the forced acceptance of a detestable thing should be left to the individual countries in accordance with their own religious beliefs and values.
As I have said before, the 'criminalising marital rape' agenda is nothing more than bait for the bigger dark LGBTx movement. The Bahamian people should be free to choose their own path in life, and they should not be forced to conform to the ideals of any one movement.

Warp is the choice that a man lay with another man or a woman with another woman in bed, calling it love. While the racist can admit his environment has influenced his views, a homo (and their supporters) try to justify their mental sickness as normal.
The darkness of the homo life is death and a greater antagonist to the creation and the things we all see as normal. So any treatment they get, "heckling, brutal beatings or brutal beatings accompanied by death", is a useless sacrifice, and I could say deserved if the one affected by the phenomenon does not seek help for his affliction.
** "Despite the challenges they face, prostitutes, alcoholics, and drug addicts can choose a path towards recovery and seek treatment for their struggles." Yet, the homo community seeks to drag in a life of dark indulgence, expecting a world of acceptance expectation that is the most prominent antagonist.**
Emmett Till's tragic death is a reminder of the lasting impact that hate, and discrimination can have on individuals and society as a whole. As we honour his memory, let us remember his humanity and the importance of treating his memory with dignity and respect.
It is also crucial to recognize that harmful phenomena, such as racism and other mental health issues like homosexuality, can damage individuals and communities. Instead of promoting or ignoring such behaviour, we should work to discourage it and support those affected by it. Doing so can help create a world where everyone feels valued and supported and does not fall to the forces of darkness.
