Over the period 1998-99 there was a procedure to be followed to improve road safety, and help the adherence of the national speed limits. This was controlled by the Royal Military Police and nicknamed "Operation MORDEN". Basically, when any journeys are made within the Theatre of Operations, vehicle drivers must report into the RMP dets along the route, where more often than not the drivers would be offered tea or coffee (especially during winter months). The vehicle's documents / equipment would be checked, along with the driver's ID and driving permits, and had to include the following:
FMT 3-2 and FMT 3-3 ( Road Traffic Accident forms ) Recovery / Breakdown forms MND (SW) / SFOR Route Map 1 x Jerry Can of Fuel Spare Wheel, Jack and Tools First Aid Kit Snow Chains Shovel |
