Important for the citizens to realise that traffic rules are only implemented to ensure their own safety
LAHORE: It is a feeling of pride when citizens of a country abide by its laws and the vehicles on the road stay behind the zebra line while waiting for the green light that allows the traffic to move. Pedestrian crossings to manage traffic are a good way to ensure that the flow of traffic remains smooth. If we do not follow the traffic rules or stop the car behind the zebra line, the CCTV cameras’ footage can help track down the violators, now that the challans are sent at the postal addresses of the violator. I think this is a good step because otherwise it would have been harder to receive the challan fee from those who do not follow the traffic rules and proudly own it.
It is important for the citizens to realise that traffic rules are only implemented to ensure their own safety on roads and an unhalted flow of traffic on the roads.
