On each one of my many travels to Lahore it looks like the amount of vehicles keeps growing and the traffic seems to be getting more intolerable. But the scenario has somewhat altered these past few times and remarkably drivers appear to be exceptionally systematic. On my voyage returning home I discovered a write-up in the paper on the enthusiasm of the Punjab government and specially the police branch to better the traffic dilemma in Lahore and their aspirations to educate the disruptive drivers on the bustling city roads. Here are various insights as to why this has been a victorious implementation till now.
Control commences with the law agencies and the Lahore Traffic Police appear to be clamping down in terms of allowing traffic culprits off without some kind of fine. Gross violations like stopping on a zebra crossing or speaking on the cell phone while traveling were till the recent past regarded minor violations by citizens until the police, in attendance at every important intersection, began clamping down. These violations are almost never noticeable nowadays and those citizens flouting the law have an noticeable look of worry, as if they were on the verge of being apprehended at any minute.
One other prominent reformation is the encouraging behavior demonstrated by the Lahore Traffic Police. There is rising self-satisfaction in considering what they do sincerely, seeing the advantageous end result of their efforts and attaining much honors for their efforts in both periodicals and the electronic media. Smartly dressed in white and grey apparel, the Lahore police force seems to be playing a crucial part in alleviating the disorder started up by hasty automobile drivers.
Lahore appears to be significantly more open-minded in terms of employing female police officers and in fact utilizing them on the streets, an occurrence I have almost never seen in any other main city in the country. An archaic perception of courtesy commonly impelled male traffic police to excuse the direst violations by female drivers in Lahore, a progressively sore topic for the women in Lahore. With a eminent number of women on the Lahore police force, women are now dealing with women, and all the sweet talk in the world are powerless against the female Lahore officer’s dedication.
Building on the prior instance, the Lahore Traffic Police are applying laws to all automobile drivers independent of the type of vehicle or the car owner. Powerful and regular citizens are equally answerable and Lahore’s police force has performed a noteworthy job of executing this regulation, bringing equitability to at least one aspect of our lives here in Pakistan. I am certain unwarranted leverage must be triumphant in a good many circumstances but the truth remains that an effort was made to warning the car owner to the greatest limit viable by the traffic constable.
These unbelievable labors have also inspired the residents of Lahore into contributing. Individuals are giving added attention to their civil duties on the avenues and acting in a somewhat cultivated manner. Advanced gadgets to assist Lahore’s Traffic Police would be an extra improvement and could be something to look at for the impending era. Up till then I presume other areas can learn a lesson from Lahore and commence clamping down on us harried automobile owners.
A large variety of used cars for sale in Lahore has created further traffic on city streets and a major pollution problem.
