The Roads Authority will take over all the functions of the Namibia Traffic Information System (NaTIS) as from Friday 10 November. The functions include motor vehicle examination, testing of learners and driving licences. These functions are currently being executed by the Namibian Police officers at all NaTIS offices countrywide.
