Sindh has extended its e-challan traffic enforcement system beyond Karachi to two more major cities, Sukkur and Hyderabad, in an effort to improve road safety and strengthen traffic regulation across the province.
Sindh Home Minister Zia-ul-Hassan Lanjar said the government is also checking driving licences through the updated system. He admitted that "computer system errors can occur" but asserted the objective is crystal clear: building an improved traffic management structure.
"If we are strengthening the system, why are we being criticised?" he asked, in defence of the province's digital policing reforms.
Meanwhile, Karachi Traffic Police shared that over Rs710 million were collected through e-challans issued in a period of just one month. According to the report, more than 93,000 violations were registered through the system.
The leading offence was travelling without seat belts: 57,541 cases attracted fines over Rs570 million. Thousands of violations were committed by motorcyclists as well in the form of 22,257 cases of riding without helmets that attracted over Rs111 million as a penalty.
Traffic Police added that dumpers, trailers and water tankers are monitored through tracker systems. This led to 1,188 challans for overspeeding. 2,699 more challans were issued to private drivers for overspeeding and 3,102 for signal violations.
Karachi also issued 1,278 challans for fancy number plates and 1,178 for tinted windows, amounting to more than Rs29.4 million in fines. Other violations included 611 challans issued for stop-line breaches and 426 for wrong-way driving.
