A police spokesman told the Associated Press of Pakistan (APP) that a campaign is underway to ensure a disciplined traffic system in the city. He added that the citizens are being advised to adhere to the traffic rules to maintain vehicular discipline.

He stated that the police personnel will ensure the enforcement of traffic rules regardless of status and rank, as well as demonstrate patience and courtesy when issuing tickets to drivers.
