The Punjab traffic police have launched a province-wide crackdown on lane discipline violations, issuing fines to over 594,000 individuals so far this year.
According to a spokesperson for the traffic police, more than 400,000 of these challans were issued specifically for violating lane and line rules. The campaign is part of ongoing efforts to ensure safer and more organized traffic across the province.
DIG Traffic Waqas Nazir stated that the introduction of dedicated green lanes in major cities, including Lahore, has helped streamline traffic flow and reduce congestion.
In other districts, he said, traffic police have successfully implemented lane discipline by placing cones on roads to guide vehicles into proper lanes.
The DIG added that the goal is not only enforcement but also public awareness. A traffic education campaign is currently underway to inform citizens about the importance of following road rules, particularly lane discipline, for the safety of all commuters.
