Lahore Implements New E-Challan System for Traffic Violations

Lahore has introduced an electronic challan (e-challan) system to curb traffic violations. This new system will send fines directly to the homes of drivers who break rules such as lane violations, stopping over the line, and ignoring zebra crossings.

This initiative was launched after Safe City cameras recorded 73,000 traffic violations in a single day. Chief Traffic Police Officer (CTO) Amara Athar emphasized the importance of strict lane discipline to ensure smooth and safe traffic flow.

CTO Athar explained that the city is enhancing road markings and lane lines, with a particular focus on keeping motorcyclists in the far left lane.

She added that lane discipline will be strictly enforced, especially on model roads in Lahore. Recent monitoring data revealed significant traffic violations, including 15,281 instances of running red lights, 12,000 cases of speeding, and 3,000 occurrences of driving against traffic.

Furthermore, over 41,000 violations related to lane and stop line infractions were reported. This year alone, Lahore has issued e-challans to 700,000 vehicles for failing to adhere to lane discipline.
