Traffic police have intensified action against one-way violations to prevent road accidents, issuing 29,704 challan tickets this month, compared to 15,000 last month — an increase of nearly 98 percent.
According to Lahore Traffic Police, more than 10,000 challans were issued in Lahore alone during the campaign. Officials said strict action is being taken against violators, with fines of Rs. 2,000 imposed for driving the wrong way.
Deputy Inspector General of Traffic Punjab, Muhammad Waqas Nazir, directed all Chief Traffic Officers (CTOs) and District Traffic Officers (DTOs) to take special measures and ensure teams remain active in the field.
He emphasized that zero tolerance will be shown toward those breaking one-way rules, which are a major cause of accidents. The police urged citizens to follow traffic rules for their own safety and to avoid heavy fines.
