The ongoing crackdown on people driving without licenses has started yielding results as thousands of people across Punjab have thronged licensing centers and offices to comply with the regulations.
According to details, the provincial traffic police have issued 74,000 licenses within just 24 hours. This was revealed by a spokesman for the Punjab Traffic Police.
The most number of driving licenses, totaling 24,000, were issued in the provincial capital, underscoring a substantial increase in compliance with licensing regulations.
Traffic Police Punjab’s Additional IG Mirza Faran Beg applauded the efforts of Chief Traffic Officer (CTO) Lahore Captain (retd.) Mustansar Feroze. The additional IG is overseeing the process of issuing fines and licenses at a monitoring center established at the traffic headquarters.
Recently, two men were arrested after they attempted to pass the driving test through cheating. As per details, one of the arrested individuals had sent his friend to pass the test for him.
However, his suspicious behavior raised doubts about his identity, eventually leading to their arrest.

So how many tests were actually conducted?
conducting 74000 driving + sign tests in a single day ,, must be a world record for any province.
Driving license is like a joke for traffic police. They are making revenue out of it rather than teaching people common sense of driving a vehicle.
It is not their job to teach people how to drive. It is, however, their job to rigorously test EVERY applicant and to only pass those who demonstrate that they can drive properly and accordingly to the rules.
Still most of the females driving cars on high beams and “paindos” as well. Over speeding on motorways and today I am personally observing.
74000 issues not printed e license service temp down 👎 because thy just generate revenue from public

Very good effort and response of public hopefully lawless biker will use rear view mirrors and use only side lane instead of driving in fast vehicle lanes putting others lives on risk hope having will improve driving behaviour and habit that is important
Complete bull crap. Their system is not working at all. Three days in a row, i have spent more than 9 hours in their khidmat markaz, and traffic police system processed just a few renewals. Even today its almost 4:30 as of now as i type and they have just processed 15 renewals so far, AFTER A DEDICATED COUNTER FOR RENEWALS. Out dated systems. Waste of public time.
