During a three-day traffic awareness campaign, district police have hinted at taking stricter action against violations of traffic discipline, while reports of a 70% reduction in road accidents have drawn significant attention from both citizens and officials.

City Police Officer (CPO) Syed Khalid Mahmood Hamdani stated that establishing a well-organized traffic system across the district is part of his core vision, and current efforts are yielding visible progress in this direction. According to him, citizens are being briefed in detail about correct lane usage, line discipline, and stop lines to further improve road order.

He added that motorcyclists are being specifically instructed to use the far-left lane, while comprehensive education is being provided regarding the use of helmets, seat belts, and other safety protocols.

The CPO mentioned that information about amendments in traffic laws, fines, and penalties is also being communicated to the public so they can better understand the legal framework.

The purpose of the awareness campaign is to enhance traffic flow, reduce congestion, and prevent accidents. Public address systems, pamphlets, social media, and other channels are being utilized for this initiative.

Chief Traffic Officer (CTO) Farhan Aslam said that there has been a noticeable improvement in traffic management within the district, and the adherence to discipline has significantly reduced the number of accidents.

District Traffic Officer (DTO) Farhan Aslam further noted that an effective traffic system is being developed in Rawalpindi, and much of the credit goes to the cooperation of the citizens.

CPO Khalid Hamdani expressed gratitude to the public, stating that maintaining traffic discipline is only possible through joint efforts, and public participation has made the district’s measures more effective.
