  knowledge of different kinds of traffic
  conditions in separate areas
• This information enables the officers on duty to
  be prepared to handle oncoming traffic in an
  orderly fashion without any chaos
• This must be complemented with a sufficient
  number of officers on duty at specific locations
  to manage the flow of traffic effectively.
